Nice post Canyon. And yes, follow the money trail.
The "catch" here is to design something that makes a good haul of algae, but is not too laborious to remove from trap. I read where someone put floaters on an old queen size metal box spring, mattress, hook it up tractor and youre off. Only issue would be extricating the catch and whatever else.
Hope we too can come up w some options.
Make a Facebook post to the hipster's page saying that you have organic, free-range, pond salad greens available to be harvested at no charge. Note that your greens are very high in nutrients!
If you do a good enough job with your marketing, then your pond should be clear of filamentous algae in about a week!
