I recently put a cedar tree like that in my forage pond for the new RES YOY to hide in. Tied a concrete block to make sure it stayed down and a rope on it so it can be removed at a later date. Put it out from the bank just far enough so it was all just barely submerged and staked the rope off at the edge of the pond. Late winter before last ('15-16) I put three huge bundles of honeysuckle/ greenbrier/ privet tangles in my pond from the old fence row. I weighted them down with big limbs anchored to the bank. They were much thicker than cedar. I have a huge amount of BG fry now. This year they had compressed somewhat, so a month ago I put a good sized cedar on top of them. In the new pond late this past winter I put one large cedar and two huge bundles of tangled briars / honeysuckle. My wife says the brush looks ugly, but at full pool it is almost totally submerged.
