    Not in her lifetime. Lake Erie had them 20 years ago. Still going strong. The sky is falling the sky is falling.

    Sounds like a future justification for more laws, and inspection stickers in MN….. Every water I have access to in a couple hour trip has this terrible infestation… and we are still all alive, and the lakes still are healthy.

    I was commenting on hsm outdoors post on this. Obviously I am not for the spread of AIS but has any lake truly been ruined due to zebra muscles? I understand they can ruin swimming beaches and that when their population is exploding they are definitely an issue.

    From what I understand they can be Plankton eating machines. According to the experts that will cause a lack of food for the other fish and stuff which they say is bad. From what I’ve seen they filter the water and make the water quality better. However I don’t own a sand beech and have people swimming around so for me it’s a good thing.

    I’ve never heard of them destroying a lake.

    We have them in the Finger lakes. Fishing is just fine. They can be a pain and clamp down on your bait if it touches the bottom.
