I am going back in a day or so and add some Aquathol super K to the area. Keeping my fingers crossed plans are to make it around in the boat and see just how bad it is. Even with grass carp 15 added last year and with Sonar treatment that crap is still there. I just can't get a handle on how many carp survived the Texas freeze and apparently i must not have added enough Sonar or it was diluted back by all the rain we got this spring. A good note was the lmb was fat and healthy even better than I expected post-spawn.

Depending on how much water entered the pond in the first 3 weeks after applying the Sonar, it could have diluted it. Talk to your pond guy, he can send a water sample out to SePro for a FAST Test at week 2 to have them determine if the Fluridone has been diluted, and if it has, how much to add to bring it back up to the correct level.

What was the water temp when the Sonar was added to the pond?
