Development of Fish Structure
Wisconsin Lake & Pond Resource, LLC builds, designs, and installs fish structure for lakes and ponds. We have many options available including hardwood cribs, plastic cribs, and natural materials.
There are many benefits to the addition of fish structure to a lake or pond:
- Provides woody hard surfaced spawning structure for many common fish
species including perch, crappie, bass, and several minnow species. - Provides needed structure (habitat) to help keep your fishery in balance by offering protection to forage fish.
- Increases growth rates of predator fish. Adult forage (prey) fish have protection to reach spawning age, which increases the density of young minnows and panfish that are easily preyed upon by predators.
- Increases overall fish carrying capacity of your water body
