Hi guys. New here and enjoying all the input and different topics. I just listed one for wanting to dig out the upper side area and had another question.
I have approx. 1-4 inches of sediment over what is otherwise a nice naturally sandy bottom to my lake. My understanding is this sediment is caused primarily from the many decidious and pine trees dropping leaves and pine needles into it each fall. The lake is primarily spring-fed and has a wetland area that also feeds into it.
Any suggestions on how to reduce or get rid of the sediment without a $50,000+ dredging project?
Are there any fish that will eat that or a chemical that will help it break down quicker?
Note: I have a spillway at the down-current side of it that is at the top of the water so it cannot naturally funnel out of the lake through the creek.
Thank you in advance!
