It has taken Toledo over in some spots on the north end. I guess the frost doesn't do much to kill it. Got to get it under control for sure. Keep the boat trailer clean for sure.

Rumor has it that's how it got in Sam Rayburn....on someone's trailer from Toledo. My friend said he saw a lot of it at Rayburn in Angelina last year. It's some baaaad stuff.

Maybe they'll overstock grass carp in those lakes too like they've done in some other Tyler area lakes.
Grass carp are very sporting....with an arrow through them....they fight like hell!
