Construction of my 1(+) acre tank is nearing completion. I'm about to fill it with structure and then will patiently (or not) wait for the rains.

I was thinking before the rains come and fill my new tank it would be nice to put in a small fishing pier or a floating dock.

Anyone have any good info or resources to pass along? I know that treated wood can be toxic, so I'm not considering that route. How long should a pier last if untreated piers are used? Would a floating dock be cheaper and last longer?

What depth should anchors be? Should concrete be raised above lake bottom?

Thanks for any assistance.
