Delaware River and Snot Grass

[noodle one]

Made a trip to the West Branch Delaware today and found that were I wanted to fish, the river bed is completely covered in snot grass. I have seem snot grass before, but not like this. This is not good for the fishery. I hope someone comes up with a way to get rid of it. I know that this is not the only river with it. This is a problem in all cold water fishery the world over. and they are working to find something that will work on it ,but is safe for the fish and people.

Interesting....DEC, et. al. would have you believe that fishermen wading in felt soled boots caused this problem. I doubt it...The west branch has been running too high/fast to wade for several years. So....???
