Clean, Drain, And Dry

I was talking with a recent friend that is a retired who lives on a stockton lake, They have found 3 different kinds of grasses in the lake so far this year

They are in a small area on different part of the lake, One of the areas is inside the buoys at the State park. It has been growing there for a few years now

most people don't always get to see it because it doesn't always grow to the top,

I found one isolated spot of aquatic vegetation on Stockton this year.

caught more fish off one small area than anywhere else the rest of the day.

New Zealand mud snails, Zebra Mussels, grass carp, jumping silver carp, water plants, Kudzu ...It never ends I guess at some point there might be a benefit from these species. (I hope)

At least if we end up with silver carp in Table Rock it'll slow down the jet skiers and wake boaters

Now THAT is hilarious!

Yeah, allowing kids to ride PWC's on waters known to harbor flying carp is endangering their welfare. LOL

Unless of course, they ski too close to me while I'm using my new Louisville slugger ! I wander If a Ned rig works on those flying carp!

On a serious note. Our beautiful, deep clean lake cannot possibly benefit with those zebra muzzles. So clean your boats.

Like many invasives the only "treatment" or "cure" that works is prevention, so the concept of doing everythin we can to not help them spread is useful. With them in LOZ I am truly surprised they have turned up in Pomme yet. There are others out there on the horizon things like Hydrilla. Once established in a larger body of water they are essentially impossible to eliminate, the old "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" is still a good tactic.

There is no waterway connection between LOZ and Pomme. So if they are in Pomme they have gotten there by other means like boats outboard motor intakes and live well tubing that are places very hard to clean. They can get in there and live for days. They do not travel in a shell form anyway. They travel in a minuet larva form. And last but not least the is in LOZ the population is almost non existent at this time.

That would be awesome. I remember when Pomme was a grass lake. It was wonderful.

I wasn't aware Pomme ever was a grass lake. How long ago was that?
