My .02. You will likely only ever see carp netting and catching on this scale in KY and Barkley. KDFWR is not getting pushed to do anything about them in any other waterbody the way they are in those two lakes. The squeaky wheel gets the oil so to speak.
Those are the only two lakes with transit locks that are connected to the Ohio River, so they should be the only lakes in KY that would have that problem. I say "should" because there's always the netting & transporting of "shad" that could also contain juvenile Asian Carp ... which could lead to them becoming established in lakes without locks.

I do know for a fact that the Asian Carp do travel all the way up the Salt River to the spillway of Taylorsville Lake ... but that's as far as they can go (unless someone nets their fry and takes them up to the lake).
