You can buy the 2" 158GPM pump for a little under $200.

Not sure if any of this is against DES rules as it might be considered "dredging".

Not that I'd ever really do any of this...
Whoa! There are no "valuable nutrients to the rest of the lake" The phosphorous and other nutrients you are releasing will promote milfoil, cyanobacteria, and other plant growth. Perhaps right near by.
