The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/09/full-13-25328-gco.jpg)

Is this pencil reed? That’s what we all called them. Take a shovel and dig one up and divide it to about 20 plants. Free vegetation only takes the labor but don’t know if it’s actually legal. I’m calling that guy from article ogles posted and start there.

Cut willows and stick in the ground is the easiest

I'm just now getting time to respond to this thread. I am all for lake-front owners and local anglers trying to plant vegetation around Fork. We have a unique opportunity right now with the lake down to try some different things. What would be ideal is to have a brief meeting one afternoon or evening somewhere around the lake. I can spend a little time answering any and all questions, then get into discussing what y'all can plant, where you can get it, how and where to plant, what TPWD has planned, etc. I have a few of y'all's contacts on this thread and can start there, but will need a little help to spread the word and get something set up. It would not take long to meet and then turn y'all loose! There is definitely some good terrestrial vegetation growing up on it's own right now, but the lake needs all of the shoreline habitat it can get. I'll throw out my email here as well, for an easy way to contact me: jake.norman@tpwd.texas.gov. It would be ideal to get something together in the next month or so. Hope to here from a few of y'all soon.
Can't we all just get along....

Is this pencil reed? Love that stuff... I did that last year in front of my place and it is thick now and it will help stop the erosion I'm getting. Bonus its a bass magnet during the spawn
