Comments | Alligator weed was recorded from the nearshore area on the west side of the lake, both in the water and on land. Alligatorweed that was recorded in the water was mostly unharmed, with minimal damage present. The recorded site photo attached above shows the tall, healthy flowering plants. There were many patches like this present in the lake. |
