Zebra Mussels

Take a look at this
What part of that indicates any kind of control of the zebra mussels?  They wouldn't stay on the metal frames either.  They cover every square inch of anything.  Please don't intentionally introduce invasive species to a lake in hopes of better visibility.

Last summer I had the privilege of diving some wrecks off of Whitefish Point in Lake Superior.  Initially, when I got in the water I thought "Man the vis is horrible!", and I think it was a bit worse than other times I had been there, but I then realized how much better the wrecks were when they weren't covered with mussels.  There is still paint on the Vienna that looks as if it were painted yesterday.
