I was given the wrong story by the rabbit sheriff who gave me the above
explanation. They actually started in the U.A. in Arkansas.

"Asian Carp arrived in the United States in 1963 as part
of an experiment to reduce nuisance vegetation without
the use of poisons that might enter the food chain, and
sewage treatment. Prior to the Clean Water Act, American
rivers were often highly polluted and the bottom feeding
varieties of carp excelled in sewage treatment lagoons.

Arkansas breeders flushed the Carp into canals and
waterways where they began to flourish and breed,
gradually expanding into the Mississippi River and
throughout the massive watershed of the river across 31
states."

Also: "Asian carp renamed "copi" to encourage its consumption"
