Watts Bar Grass

[RoseXB03]

In my mind I am not wanting "mass spraying", they are treating marinas and some ramps. I use the lake for mostly recreation and a small amount of fishing. I just want to preserve our spots where we gather. I don't think treating an area less than 2 acres is detrimental. The fishermen around here won't even discuss it, I am good with a win win for all. Deep down I would like to see it all go away, the ecosystem here has been good for 20+ years but I am willing to meet in the middle.

I have always been curious, what is the water clarity at Watts Bar? How much visibility?

I wonder how Roundup would work?

 

[skewby]

basically the same thing. round up is the name brand. 24d is what we buy in bulk from coop to spray the ball fields

You really want those chemicals mixed in the water you swim in?

It depends on the time of year, but 2' to 5'.

Round-up has been linked to cancer, mis-carriages, and ADHD........go ahead and let your family soak in that for a little while.
