Dan,

I also had the same problem you did in my 1 acre pond. Pond weed all around about 20 feet or so out from the shore. I put 7 Grass Carp in my pond and this year I hardly have any pond weed. So if you want to control it and you can have GC in your area I would suggest about 20 of them. I have about 10 percent coverage now with 7 so you do the math. You can always go a few less and add more later if you need to. If you add them this year you should see a pretty good difference next year I would think.

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
