Abstract:

The North Carolina Wildlife Commission permitted the stocking of sterile triploid grass carp at more than fifty locations in twenty-seven counties in North Carolina in 1985. Most stockings were in private ponds and lakes infested with a variety of submerged and floating aquatic weeds. The largest single stocking was with five-thousand fish in Sutton Lake near Wilmington.
