Friends of Lake Lewisville - 07/30/17 06:05 PM
Hello,
I am starting the Friends of Lake Lewisville Association. The goal will be to make the Lake a better fishery. We in association with TPW would develop and implement fish habitat and fisheries conservation projects on Lewisville.
I need help in getting the word out.
Can you help?
Thanks, Ken

Sure. Can we plant hydrilla somewhere?

I think it's a very good thing if you can make it work.

Plenty of hydrilla on Lewisville already. It's all by 380...that's where Dillard is catching all the monsters!

Has TPW already agreed to partner with you?

I would help too. We will have to be very secretive if we plant any vegetation in the Highland village area. Not sure those folks would be keen on having grass around their expensive docks.

Definitely in to get that accomplished!
I bet a Facebook page or something would help
Docks in Highland Village?? also I don't believe that the silt in the lake is sufficient to allow Hydrilla to grow or there would at least some sparse plants growing. It would be a great thing have fish habitat added to the lake I live in little elm and would be interested in helping and being a part of this group.

I would like to be a part of this also, but I recall past efforts (you've seen the orange webbing cages) years ago all failed. Jack Scroggins from the old Bass House in Lake Dallas told me years ago that he thought the soil around Lake Lewisville was too poor to support aquatic vegetation and that in combination with the fluctuating water levels makes it very difficult to get any sustainable grass going.
