Described are preferred methods and compositions for controlling aquatic weeds that involve the use of an herbicidal combination including a first herbicidal agent selected from triclopyr and 2,4-d and at least a second selected herbicidal agent. In preferred methods of the invention, the selected second herbicidal agent can be fluridone, diquat, an ALS inhibitor, or 2,4-d, with the proviso that when the second herbicidal agent is 2,4-d the first herbicidal agent is triclopyr. Preferred herbicidal combinations allow for enhanced control and/or selectivity when treating a body of water to control a target weed population, such as a watermilfoil, curlyleaf pondweed, Brazilian elodea, and/or hydrilla weed population.
