SUMMARY:Christmas Tree Collections For Fish Habitat
DESCRIPTION:PrintIllinois Department of Natural Resources fisheries biologists are collecting live Christmas trees to be used as fish habitat in local lakes after the holidays.  The collected trees will be bundled together\, weighted\, and submerged at lakes\, providing critical habitat for multiple fish species and promoting algae growth for insects that attract fish for anglers.  The trees will naturally decompose over time. \nMaps and coordinates of the tree habitat locations are available online or from each lake’s biologist.  Visit the IDNR Office of Fisheries website for drop-off location information and instructions. Trees should be placed only in the designated area for each site and only during the designated drop-off dates.  Trees must be free of stands\, lights\, ornaments\, and tinsel.  Wreaths and garlands will not be accepted. \nDrop-off locations and dates include the following: \nFayette County:  Ramsey Lake State Recreation Area\nUntil January 18\nPlace trees at designated area near boat ramp. \nJasper County:  Newton State Fish and Wildlife Area\nUntil January 18\nPlace trees at designated area on northwest side of the parking lot near boat ramp. \nSam Parr State Fish and Wildlife Area\nUntil January 18\nPlace trees in designated area near southwest boat ramp. \nStephen A.
