I have this in a print article in the Weekly Vista, can't cut and paste. so I will summarize:

An AGFC project has put white rectangular floating plant pens in the Rocky Branch and Van Winkel arms.  These containers have American pond weed and coontail.  It is hoped that wave and wake action will shake loose seeds from the plants in the enclosures and start plant growth on the bottom.  Six large enclosures for pond weed and eighteen enclosures for coontail are in place.  It's something of an experiment, but is has worked on DeGray lake.

I have noticed the hydrilla on the dam end is becoming more widespread every year.

That will be interesting to follow.  A couple of months ago I found a cove at Stockton full of curly leaf pond weed.  I went back to fish it Thursday and it was all gone.  Where?

There is hydrilla on the dam end of Beaver? Where?

It's scattered all over the place.  Find some flats where the water is 20 feet deep and drag something like a c-rig or football jig and there's a chance you'll dredge some up.  You might be able to spot some on the bottom in places too if you look around.  I have not seen anywhere where it grows to the surface.
