At this time of the year, I'd forget about it for this year and plan an attack for next year if it's floating FA.

If you are dead set against using chemicals, I'd look at Tilapia (if legal), or maybe Grass Carp if there are no other plants in the pond and you don't pellet feed.

But, I used to go the chemical route, and tried Tilapia this year, which seemed to help greatly. I'll increase the Tilapia density next year.
