Probably Kara Tveet (sure I misspelled it)  I know she works on hydrilla and other Aquatic invasive.  Aquatic invasive are pretty good at evolving to meet conditions else they wouldnt be invasive.  Small patches are not a bad thing but invasive never seem to stay small.

Its all of those Herons carrying the stuff into new area on their feet.  Someone need to get them in check and the plant stuff would stop.....

             Sounds like someone brought it in on boat trailer or in the hull or live well.  Maybe someone dumped an aquarium fill of plants and piranha.

That little cove you speak of was loaded with fish a few weeks ago.  We caught several walleye as well as other species out of there on little swimbaits.  I would not have expected to catch walleye there, but there were a bunch in there (mostly dinks though).  I don't see much aquatic vegetation at stockton so we figured we aughtta check it out and it paid off.
