That's some serious brush. Clearing it out should help immensely, the increased wind and sun will hurt mosquito reproduction and increase the aesthetic appeal. You're probably too shallow for reliable fish over-wintering, but you could stock fast-reproducing minnows each spring to help control mosquitoes.
