I've got a grass carp permit but haven't stocked them yet. As is common, my BOW grows too much bushy pondweed for my liking.
Just wondering to what extent grass carp chowing down on the pondweed helps liberate nutrients into the water. Some ponds I've fished got significantly murkier after grass carp were stocked. It just seems this must help. To be sure, what leaves the hind end must be dead and available for recycling by bacteria and zooplankton. Couple this the influence of TP and the effect is probably stimulated further.
