We had a serious issue, investation of about 40% of the lake) with millfoil in a 25 acre east texas lake. We stocked 5 per acre with no success. We then treated with Sonar, but it was too expensive and the millfoil was back the next year. We added 5 more per acre and the millfoil is all gone. In hind site we should added 2 or 3 more per acre. Now, we are afraid of the effects of too many grass Carp. The first group of Grass carp were added 3 years ago.

Other than the total elimination of vegatation and stirring up the bottom of the lake, what are the other downfalls?

What is the best REALISTIC way to begin removal?
