Save this Iconic BASS FISHING LAKE

Out here in NorCal especially on the CA Delta/Clear Lake I’ve heard convos of doing this because there’s a budget and the folks can get paid, so they’ll spray as long as they get paid. Terrible mindset. Why kill grass that mess up the ecosystem. Let grass grow and let nature take its course.

Good awareness video.
In a few lakes in Ohio , they wanted to clean up the water. So 5-6 years ago they placed Zebra muscles in the lake that was only 4ft-8ft deep. It got too clear now the grass so thick the boats get out of the docks. The grass was too thick for the fish to live in. They been mechanical harvesting some grass but not spraying. But you do need some grass.

Chad I appreciate your insight. My wife and I have been looking at properties around guntersville lake since we fished it 2 years ago for the kbf championship. We love the lake and it's grass. We're waiting for our last child to graduate to relocate to this amazing place, which will be in about 2 more years. We as well would like to monitor this as lake guntersville is our soul reason for wanting to relocate. We will be monitoring this closely as we're not going to buy a home on a fishery that is on the downhill slide due to over spray or poor management of the lake. Anything we can do to get involved, let us know.

Thank you chad for the information and yes I agree spaying dose kill more than just plants it can kill off fish

That’s a frustrating situation. Too many people automatically go for bending the environment to fit their wants instead of integrating themselves into the environment. The results are too often disastrous.

Grass Harvesting is the only safe and Bass Friendly way to do grass. Let people throw some Dock and beach pucks out near there docks. Thats what lakes around me do in Michigan. They leave the grass in a way. Just kinda cut it.

Who do we call or write to to get it stopped?

Wildlife always takes the backseat. I was planning a trip there next spring. Leave the lakes alone. Find a better way

Great video. In June, I went on a night fishing trip with you, and as you may remember, I'm planning on moving to Guntersville. What can i do as a non-resident of Alabama?

My grandpa shows me pictures of santee copper back in the 70’s and 80’s and the quality and amount of fish he used to catch before they killed the grass now it’s super tough and not really worth the drive.
