I can't remember it ever covering the surface, but we raised the water the first time 5 years ago so it's been a while. I was totally uneducated then and was completely focused on repairing the dam and not so much on the water.

I will say that for the last few years there is absolutely zero sign of any vegetation. If I had not pulled that stuff up with the airline I would have never even known it was there.

My place is 7-8 acres at 10,000' in the mountains. Long hard Winters and I have waged a war against fish kills every year. Excess vegetation is certainly not helping my cause. Going to be interesting to see if it is there again this year.
