On May 3, 2011, Chef Philippe Parola attended the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force (ANSTF) meeting workshop where he presented his solution to the Asian carp problem and cooked Asian carp for ANSTF members to taste. SEE PHOTOS AT SILVERFINCRAZE.COM
On May 4, 2011, with the help of Arkansas' very own Steve "Wild Man" Wilson, Chef Philippe participated in a Silverfin Craze media blitz where he promoted Asian carp as an edible species of fish, talked about his solution to the Asian carp problem, let media members taste Asian carp, and promoted the SilverfinCraze.com website.SEE PHOTOS AT SILVERFINCRAZE.COM
The trip was a great success! Chef Philippe was hosted by the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission for this trip, and they were excellent hosts. After spending several days with the AGFC staff, it is clear that they not only support Chef Philippe's plan for controlling the Asian carp population but also are very dedicated to their jobs and to the State of Arkansas' wildlife and environment. The people of Arkansas are fortunate to have such committed people working for the cause.
