Genetic material from a worrisome invasive fish species has been detected in a lake in Central Kentucky, but officials stress that doesn’t mean live fish have made it into the lake. Environmental DNA from bighead carp and silver carp was detected in six of 330 water samples from Taylorsville Lake taken October 21 and 22, the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources announced Tuesday.

Bighead, silver and grass carp are invasive fish that have been found in the Mississippi, Tennessee, Cumberland and Ohio rivers and tributaries.
