In an attempt to control the amount of aquatic vegetation we have in the ponds (particularly the algae), yesterday we released 40 grass carp throughout the ponds here at the course. The fish are about 8-10 inches long and will grow up to about 18 inches by fall. Grass carp will eat up to 3 times their body weight everyday, so hopefully they'll help us out a little bit with our algae problem on 8 pond! We're trying to do whatever we can without having to pour chemicals into our ponds and creeks. Let's hope they work!!
