I just built a 3/4 acre water shed pond. Has about 10-15 acres runoff to it. Deepest parts are 8 - 9 ft with one end being 2 ft or less in places. This was already a low area that water ran through my property.
Now I am working on creating cover for fish (Bass, Sac-a-Lait, Bluegill, Catfish) before the pond fills.
I am planning on some pallet structure, pvc structures, a couple of root balls, but was considering dropping some whole trees in the pond. Some of them being pine trees. Is there anything negative about pine trees in a pond for cover?
