Can I harvest Freshwater Aquatic Grasses/Vegetation In California????

[PressuredFishing]

So I harvest kelp off the beach in california, but I was wondering sense DFG doesnt specify If I can harvest Milfoils or hydrillias in freshwater, does anybody know? (I use both for composting)

   You're asking the wrong people. Ask the authorities. Our opinion means nothing; theirs means everything.         jj

Yeah I tried contacting DFG on their phone number and emails, Its really hard to contact them unless in person, Perhaps they dont work on weekends.

Milfoil and Hydrilla are a non native plant but it’s California!

Go to: https://wildlife.ca.gov/Regions

 

Find the e-mail contact for your specific region.  The last time I contacted the POC for the region I live in, they responded in about a week.
