Well the salvanai spread via boat hull if I go in and back out to other areas that are not contaminated?

There is no way that I would go into the area contained by the boom if the area has been sprayed with that toxic group of chemicals. These chemicals have been banned in some countries that are not under the control of companies like Monsanto. John, I don't see how you can justify putting those chemicals into our water supplies. There are numerous studies showing the detrimental effects on humans and other animals. John, I suggest that if you think these are so safe, that you collect several gallons of water from the sprayed areas, take the water home, and have you and your family drink it regularly. Report back in six months. Salvinia is a nuisance; glyphosate is a poison. If you need links to the studies, I will dig them out and post. HHH
Question, do you live in California, or are you just trolling? Either way, we dont want or need your help...

Question, do you live in California, or are you just trolling? Either way, we don’t want or need your help... I live in Athens and was told about this thread --- due to the fact that I fish the lake all the time I was interested. Nice read except for the 2 quotes I copied FIRST: to crapicat --- who is this "WE" you refer to when taking a shot at HHH ? He/she has a right to express an opinion about chemicals being put in our water supply. Not that I agree with the opinion or not he/she still has that right. AND what in the HECK does living in California have to do with anything SECOND: to HHH --- How can you make a statement to JOHN about the chemicals they used for the spraying ? I did not read anywhere above where he identified the chemicals used for this issue. Many chemicals that are used in pest and plant control are perfectly safe for us humans,,,,,but even at that to make a blanket statement such as "that toxic group of chemicals" is completely irresponsible. Unless you have certain knowledge of what was used you shouldn't make that statement. JOHN -- Thanks for the job you do, the information you posted and your attempt to keep Lake Athens clear of this bad weed ...... just don't kill our other grass.

flukeman - 7 posts down from the top John comes back and mentions glyphosate. Bad stuff. There are lawyers advertising all over the place if you have been diagnosed with Lymphoma Cancer and have ever been in contact with glyphosate to contact them to get in on the class action lawsuit.

It is possible but it's always a good idea to check before you go from an infested area to one that is not.

good point about checking , it does get caught in the JP alot. And taking off it just settles on the bottom inside of the plate, until you come off plane. Just a thought

Hey, flukeman, to answer your question on the WE comment...I have a license, to spray chemicals...so the we is reflective of anyone holding such a license. Regarding the California comment...As a license holder, I get overly tired of overtly Liberal tree hugging comments from anyone, that dont understand anything about the processes involved...yet they feel compelled to make blanket statements through ignorance...this phenomenon seems rampant from the California raised individuals...so if you believe I unfairly identified you or some good California person, well I apologize to you...but where I come from there is a saying...If the shoe fits, wear it
Hope this clears up your concerns about my comments. As Paul Harveyused to say, Good Day...

Don't bring Fracs into it, unless you work on a chemical crew in the industry, which you don't, by your comment. Anyone that does, knows better. Fresh water supplies are not found in the same layers/depth, as oil and gas deposits.

Youre right. Youve got to drill past the water.
You must work in the industry. Cause thats the only people I know that defend it.

Thanks in advance for your clarification!

Fresh water supplies are not found in the same layers/depth, as oil and gas deposits. Yea, but our media and every social Justice cause conveniently omits the relevant facts because it just does not serve their narrative. Like the guy that thinks swimming in water in the same lake where spot foliage spraying techniques are used is somehow a threat to his health, happiness, welfare (value of his property) without even a rudimentary understanding of what he is saying but says it anyway, just because he has a mouth and cant disengage it long enough to fully understand the facts...Jumping J just remember, it takes all kinds to make a world,...kind of reminds me of the old Chevy Chase movies...
