But it's far from natural Heck only one natural lake in Texas LIKE the TFF on Facebook - www.facebook.com/texasfishingforum You want to make a difference in life? Take a kid fishing!

They recently sprayed on Toledo Bend a couple of months ago and of course over sprayed and killed most of the grass on the south end of the lake. Sucks because that was my playground during tournaments.

Sucks because that was my playground during tournaments. False, lots of other factors effecting grass over there. High water has been the biggest factor. Most spraying now is for salvinia. I'm sure there may be some collateral damage. I am the last one to want a stem of hydrilla effected but anything that will stop salvinia has to be done.
