that place needs to be dredged. with a max depth of 5' in the main lake and mud bottom it is the perfect place to grow weeds...the back half is choked out with water chestnut..

They bombed it with chemical weed killer beginning in 2010. Because of the chestnuts. Wiped out most of the weeds, but what was very clear, clean water became turbid with dissolved weed matter. The abundant pickerel population declined.
