Impact Description | Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) introductions resulted in a decrease of aquatic macrophytes (Potamogeton, Elodea, Ceratophyllum, and Najas), all controlled effectively by Ctenopharyngodon idella. The reduction of submerged macrophytes increased opportunities for angling and in turn increasing angling activity. |
