Is anyone having their water-based recreation influenced by aquatic vegetation and want to do something about it?

The ice will soon be gone and the weeds will soon be here.  Any results from the Ball Pond/grass carp experiment, to control aquatic vegetation?

The carp reduced the total biomass of weeds for a few years(3-4), then they got old and fat & lazy. Some new ones will replace the old, but they will never reduce the vegetation to a point where it is not a problem for recreation in Ball Pond. Too many nutrients feeding the crop.
