Two Hundred Mines = Dead Fleet. How to Overcome?

I have been playing against a buddy of mine (much better then AI any day) and I moved into one of his home planets to smash it. Well the 3 mine sweepers weren't enough (they swept 42 mines)- I lost all 4 Carriers and the rest of the 19 ship fleet.

So, it is nearly impossible to take on a human planet if he has enough mines placed there.

Is this a game killer flaw or is there some way I could get around this strategy?

Thanks,

Bowden
