Amistad National Recreation Area - Freshwater Plants

Amistad National Recreation Area by National Parks Service

Lake Amistad is home to several species of aquatic plants. Pondweed and Hydrilla are the most common, seen in abundance around the edge of the lake. They provide shelter for the young fish and invertebrates that feed the trophy bass our visiting fishermen catch.
