Controlling Weeds in Your Farm Pond
When you break up the pond questions into different management questions, how to clear out excess vegetation is at the top of that list.
Before we start, please understand that some vegetation is good and even needed in most ponds. Vegetation provides cover for fish and helps add oxygen. But as we can imagine, too much vegetation can lead to problems as well.
There are four kinds of aquatic vegetation: submersed, emergent, floating, and algae or other plankton. Submerged plants are rooted plants with most of their vegetative mass below the water surface. Emergent plants are rooted plants often along the shoreline that stand above the surface of the water (cattails for example). True floating plants are not attached to the bottom. Algae are very primitive plants. Some algae are microscopic (planktonic algae). Others are thin and stringy or hair-like (filamentous algae).
Herbicides approved for aquatic weeds, when applied according to the label, are an effective, safe, and environmentally responsible method of eliminating excess vegetation.
Timing is important when applying aquatic herbicides. Pond owners will find a poor response to any treatment that is made in the dead of winter when vegetation is not actively growing. Fall is too late to do much good and summer may find aquatic weeds that are already causing too many problems to solve.
That leaves late spring and early summer as the ideal time to stay ahead of excessive pond weed growth. True, you can treat weeds later in the summer months, but you will have more total vegetation to contend with and you could run into a low oxygen problem if you try and treat too much of your pond’s weeds at once.
How do we have an oxygen problem that kills fish after killing weeds in the summer? First, warm water holds less oxygen than cold water. There is some hard science behind this fact. Specifically, “The solubility of oxygen decreases as the water temperature increases.” This means that colder water can hold more dissolved oxygen available to fish than warmer waters.
Additionally, when something is killed and begins to rot, the decomposition process consumes oxygen. A dead squirrel on the side of the road will not cause any serious lack of oxygen, but the drop in oxygen in a pond full of decomposing vegetation is not easily replenished.
So, if you combine warmer pond water in the summer with a large mass of decomposing vegetation, you certainly can have fish die from lack of oxygen. But do not blame the product used. The blame is all on the timing and actions of the applicator.
You may ask how to avoid any fish die-off in the summer months or during any other time of the year. The solution is to treat no more than a third of the pond at a time so that fish have oxygen available.
With the large number of products available, there is not enough room in this article to cover them all. Proper identification is a must for any success. The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service has a tremendous website that will help with weed identification and treatment. Go to aquaplant.tamu.edu for a world of valuable information.
Let me say it again, herbicides approved for use in ponds will not kill fish. If they did kill fish, then I cannot imagine how they would ever have been approved.
It is also important to state that there are products commonly used in ponds that have no business being applied. If the label does not state that it can be used in a pond with specific instructions on how to apply it, then it is not legal to use in a pond. No, I don’t care what your neighbor said, if it is not labeled, then it is out of bounds.
If you wish to learn more about farm pond management, the Angelina County office of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service will host a farm pond management seminar on Tuesday, June 20 at 6:30 pm. The Angelina County Extension office is located at 2201 S. Medford Dr. in Lufkin, Texas. There is no fee for the seminar.

Blueberry Bluegrass Concert in the Park (Nacogdoches County)
The Texas Blueberry Festival kicks off with the Blueberry Bluegrass Concert in the Park, from 6 to 9:30 p.m. Friday, June 9 at Festival Park in downtown Nacogdoches. This free family-friendly concert is made possible by Presenting Sponsor Rex Perry Autoplex and will feature three well-known musical acts, The Little Roy and Lizzy Show, The Purple Hulls, and The Blake Brothers, as well as a special appearance by up-and-coming group the Gent Mountain Grassburs, who are sure to make you smile!
THE ACTS
Little Roy and Lizzy are renowned bluegrass musicians from Georgia. Elizabeth Long, or Lizzy as her friends and fans know her, has played with acts such as Mac Wiseman, Jim and Jesse, The Lewis Family, and Earl Scruggs. At the 2015 GMA Dove awards she was awarded Best Bluegrass Song of the Year for “God is There,” a duet with Rhonda Vincent. She is one of the youngest fiddlers to be inducted into “America’s Old Time Fiddler’s Country Hall of Fame” in LeMars, Iowa. “Little Roy” Lewis, from the legendary Lewis Family, has been inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame, SPGBMA Hall of Greats, IBMA Hall of Honor, and the Southern Gospel Music Hall of Fame.
“Having Little Roy and Lizzy return to Nacogdoches is a dream come true for us!” said Scott Waller, Blueberry Bluegrass Concert in the Park co–organizer. “These two are legends in their own right, and they are absolutely amazing on stage together. It’s going to be a magical night.”
The Purple Hulls are identical twins Katy Lou and Penny Lea Clark. The Clark sisters were raised on a working family farm in Kilgore and they paid for college with money from the family’s purple hull harvest. After graduation, they moved to Nashville, where they began touring with various country artists and writing songs for Nashville’s largest publishing company, Sony Tree. The sisters returned home in 2012 to care for their terminally ill father and they stayed in East Texas after he passed away, helping their mother with the farm while continuing their music career. This will be the Purple Hulls’ fifth appearance at the Blueberry Bluegrass Concert.
The Blake Brothers, formed in 2000 by Tim and Bruce Blake, feature Britt Green on mandolin and vocals and Nancy Blake on bass. The North Louisiana band played at the inaugural Blueberry Bluegrass Concert and has performed extensively across East Texas and the Ark-La-Tex area over the years.
FOOD, PARKING, AND MORE
The concert also will feature food trucks and vendors. Organizers encourage attendees to bring blankets and lawn chairs. The event is family-friendly, so please leave your coolers and alcohol at home. Pets on a leash are also welcome.
Organizers are grateful for the enthusiastic partners that make the concert possible, especially Presenting Sponsor Rex Perry Autoplex, Sound Sponsor Cataract, Glaucoma and Retina Consultants of East Texas, Shuttle Bus Sponsor Harry’s Building Materials, Golf Cart Sponsor Commercial Bank of Texas, T-Shirt Sponsor XETX Solutions, the City of Nacogdoches, the Nacogdoches County Chamber of Commerce, the Nacogdoches Convention and Visitors Bureau, First Baptist Church, SFA Alumni Association and Motorhomes of Texas.

Simplifying Services and Fighting Fraud Garner Industry Recognition
TxDMV programs and initiatives focus on customer service and fraud prevention
(AUSTIN, Texas – May 30, 2023) The American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) recognizes the success of recent Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) initiatives that have improved the safety and convenience of motor vehicle services.
Texas by Texas (TxT) Mobile Application
The TxT mobile application earned an AAMVA regional Customer Convenience Service Award. This award recognizes jurisdictions for improving customer-facing processes. TxT is the state’s first digital assistant, providing an easy, fast and secure way to take care of state services.
Beyond being a mobile-friendly option, TxT provides customers with a new and improved experience over transactions performed online with traditional web browsers. Texans renewing their vehicle registration now have access to a more personalized and responsive experience.
The department successfully integrated vehicle registration renewal services onto the TxT platform in collaboration with the Texas Department of Information Resources and the state’s private sector technology partner Deloitte.
“Texans deserve a quick and easy process for renewing their vehicle registration,” said TxDMV Executive Director Daniel Avitia. “This is part of an ongoing effort to improve how Texans access government services in line with the streamlined, one-stop-shop experiences they have come to expect.”
Temporary Tags and Dealer Licensing Improvements
Improvements to temporary tags and motor vehicle dealer license improvements earned the AAMVA Fraud Prevention and Detection Award. This award recognizes new programs or initiatives that enhance or ensure the integrity of products and services in a jurisdiction. AAMVA selected Texas tag and licensing improvements as both a regional winner and the overall international winner.
Enhancements to the dealer licensing process included:
- Enhanced verification of property ownership records.
- Requirements for additional ownership and premises documents.
- Creation of a Background and Fraud Unit to review dealer license applications.
- Implementation of a fingerprinting requirement for dealer license applicants.
Enhancements to TxDMV systems included:
- Establishment of maximum temporary tag issuance limits for dealers.
- Denial of dealers’ access to the tag system when fraudulent activity is identified.
- Establishment of Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) decoding and VIN validation.
- Redesign of temporary tags to facilitate law enforcement identification of counterfeit tags.
Although there will always be criminals who will seek ways to circumvent the law, Texas has addressed law enforcement’s principal outstanding concerns with the previous vehicle registration process.
“The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles will continue to work closely with local, state and federal law enforcement entities to prioritize the reduction of fraud to protect the public,” Avitia said.
AAMVA is a nonprofit association that works with North American motor vehicle and law enforcement agencies to develop model programs and best practices in motor vehicle administration, law enforcement, and highway safety.

Customer Contact: AskDMV@TxDMV.gov 1-888-368-4689 |
The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles registers and titles motor vehicles, licenses motor vehicle dealers, credentials motor carriers, issues oversize/overweight permits, investigates complaints against dealers and motor carriers, and awards grants to law enforcement agencies to reduce vehicle burglaries and thefts.

Angelina College Athletics Weekly Update
Lady Roadrunner Softball Seasons Ends at World Series
AC’s ladies began the week with the World Series kickoff banquet Monday in Alabama – at the famed Talladega Superspeedway Track, no less. The players got to burn a couple of laps around the track while on the team bus, and the banquet took place in the facility placed in the track’s infield.
On Tuesday, bad weather completely scrambled the day’s schedule, leaving the Lady ‘Runners with the day’s final game – one that wouldn’t start until nearly 11 p.m. AC battled No. 4 Walters State before falling short in a 3-0 loss.
In Wednesday’s elimination game, AC bounced back impressively to hammer Eastern Arizona 7-0. Kaetlyn Dunbar homered and drove in two runs, Hailey Fuentes added another two RBI and Skyler Martin and Bailey Frenzel provided run-scoring hits. Pitcher Mia Gilmore tossed a complete-game shutout to earn the win in the circle.
However, a late (and controversial) ejection meant the already-short-handed Lady ‘Runners would be another player down on Thursday.
Sure enough, the situation was just a little too much to overcome, as AC fell to Kaskaskia College 6-4 to end the Lady Roadrunners’ season. The loss marked the final games for Lady Roadrunner sophomores Hailey Fuentes, Alyssa Collazo, Madi Baker, Mia Gilmore, Lace Tangianau, Morgan Louviere, Bailey Frenzel, Haley Primrose and Gianna Wade.
The Lady ‘Runners finished with 27-23 record and the program’s third appearance in the NJCAA World Series.
Kohring Earns Coach of the Year Award
More post-season accolades certainly are on the way, but AC Softball head coach Brette Kohring got things started on a high note during Monday’s World Series banquet. There, Kohring received the Mid-South A District Coach of the Year Award following her inaugural season as a head coach at any level.
The new plaque was just the latest addition to Kohring’s awards earned at Angelina College. The former Lady Roadrunner softball standout turned in two solid seasons as a highly productive hitter in the middle of the AC lineup, leading the Lady Roadrunners to the national tournament in 2019, where AC finished as the No. 2 team in the nation. Over her two years as a player, Kohring batted .381 with 12 homers, 24 doubles and 79 runs batted in.
Along the way, Kohring racked up a number of individual awards, including NFCA Academic All-American, 1st Team Region XIV East All-Conference, 1st Team All-Region XIV, and NFCA 1st Team All Midwest Region.
She is the daughter of Amanda and Russel Kohring of Brenham, Texas.
Summer Camps for Athletics:
Any youngster looking for something fun and productive to do this summer (and any
parent looking to get the kids out of the house for a few hours) can look to Camp Roadrunner to come to the rescue. Camp Roadrunner and the athletics camps offer kids a full day of fun and instruction in numerous areas, guaranteeing no one is going to feel bored. (And parents, they’re going to come home tired. You win!)
