Default Sinking brushpiles in big lake

Went ran jugs with cousin today in big lake caught some hammer garfish. Wind blew the jugs to bank and best fish were caught where there was some brush by the bank. Got me thinking I need to sink some brush. What is best type tree to sink and how much weight do I need

I would think lily pads a better option. Provides shade, gar fish love shade, and a place for bait fish to hide.

I just tie old crab traps together with barbed wiire and throw a couple old tires/rims on it to keep it sunked. fish love it, and it last longer than brush.

hurricane fence is great, but it's hard to deploy without scratching the wrap on my boat.

Didn't want to use bamboo because that stuff isn't around the lake. They will know it's not supposed to be there. May get some rozo cane and sink though. The ones we caught were by rozo cane and murkle bushes

I mean, I don't see why you are worried about anyone knowing it's not supposed to be there. You already want to sink something on a public waterbody, which is against the law without a permit.

The Corps of Engineers is a real PitA when it comes to that kind of stuff.
