Abstract:

The North Carolina Wildlife Commission uses old Christmas trees to create fish habitats in lakes; however, the trees soon decay. In the summer of 2000, the agency began a study to determine whether manmade structures or woody vegetation are better fish attractors. Sutton Lake in New Hanover County is the site of the study.
