Judging by what some people i know pay to fertilize their 2 acre farm ponds, my armchair scientist answer is that it would be so expensive as to be impossible to fertilize a lake as huge as Lake Martin. But who knows. i can ask some folks at ADEM that i know.

Releasing shad? Maybe that would be too expensive to make an impact also, but that sounds like a good idea to me.

Also i wonder about the term "infertile" - maybe that is a scientific term for ph levels or something, but i have seen infertile ponds that are brackish with literally no life in them. Doesn't seem to fit the description of Martin.
