choosing artificial fish habitat
With the choices increasing rapidly in the artificial fish habitat market, there are a number of things to consider:
1.Quantity needed/Desired coverage
2.Man made or natural
3.Cost/availability
4.Eco. friendly/ease of installation
These are just some of the points to consider when planning on improving the fish habitat in your lake or pond management goals. Because many products will do what they are intended for, attracting fish is only part of the plan. If your goals are to grow more, healthier and larger fish, they need to have a full array of habitat to use and grow within. Fish need tight, fine cover for eggs and fry to cling and hide in. As they mature, fish move a bit deeper in search of food and comfort. They need larger, more coarse habitat to use for hiding and ambush of smaller species. Shade is of great importance to all species of fish to control their temperature.
There is a new product available called fishiding that is made from reclaimed PVC. It comes ready to install, self weighted and can be easily handled by one person in a small fishing boat. It is made of wide, thin limbs that grow algae and attract all kinds of fish including: bass, crappie,walleye.pike,panfish and many more. The "cradle" model is designed for fry in shallow water and the base of all three products look like a hardwood stump. The largest unit, "The Keeper" stands four feet tall and opens to a diameter of seven feet. The middle sized "Safehouse" stands 42" tall and opens to a full six foot diameter.
The website is:http://fishiding.com, see for yourself. Take a look and compare to the rest. Most work well, some move around without a ton of weight you have to add. Some just don't have enough surface area to attract all species. While others are just to expensive to buy enough to do the job right. Either way you go, improving fish cover and fish habitat in your lake or pond helps the fish and the fisherman. Get involved with a local club and help reclaim fish habitat!
