Curious as to why there isn’t any male hydrilla here and if there are any other states with only female hydrilla

Early 80's Conroe was one of the best lakes in the state. Clear Green Water with Bass everywhere...now it is a mudhole filled with A-holes. Just my opinion-never ever allow what happened to Conroe again.

A lot of the blue haired Karen and Clays, who build lake houses, are the ones that complain about the grass being around their docks and they cannot throw 3/8 oz spinner bait.

I find it hard to believe that in this day and time with all of the technology we have available, that spraying poison into a lake and basically killing the whole ecosystem is the best option for controlling invasive species or introducing grass carp. Both are very destructive.

Kinda like lake fork, it's full of stumps and trees but they kill the grass. Why? Never understood that.

i wish ken smiths video would have been true but i figured it wouldn't be the truth Ken’s video was with a TPWD fisheries biologist. I think they would like to make true the things that guy said but they can’t. There was a lady out here about a month before they sprayed “mapping” the hydrila. She was not a TPWD fisheries biologist, she a TPWD specialist in invasive plants and native plants. I think the left hand doesn’t know and doesn’t fight with the other people in their department. All just happy to have their state jobs and benefits. he has several videos with the guy over vegetation control

I studied this a little bit and discovered that if a very small amount of it is introduced up stream from and area it will re-establish in that area pretty fast. I was studying this wondering about what it would do on a small private lake if it got established and if it could be maintained and controlled on a smaller body of water. I believe it is how ever against the law to do this on public water.

Both are very destructive. THERE ARE A LOT OF TOTAL IDIOTS IN THIS WORLD TODAY. JUST LOOK AT WHOSE IN CHARGE OF THE USA GOING DOWN THE TUBES BECAUSE OF THE IDIOTS IN CHARGE. SAME WITH THE IDIOTS IN CHARGE OF SPRAYING THE GRASS IN TEXAS LAKES. STUPID, STUPID, STUPID.
