UglyTree Habitats are spectacular additions to any lake to increase the availability of dense habitat. Each UglyTree contains dense fronds which help to provide crucial cover for young of year fish and mature forage around spawning areas. This cover helps improve survivability and growth of forage fish, drastically improving the energy availability that they carry for sportfish.
With a lack of habitat, few small forage fish will survive to the 3- 4” size when they become a more optimal forage for bass. Sportfish will expend more energy consuming less food, thus hindering their growth.
Each Kit includes
Step 1: Snap the top, middle, and bottom pieces together with the easy connectors
Step 2: Screw the included holding fork into the bottom bush
Step 3: unfold the fronds completely, achieving the intended “Fluffy” appearance
Step 4: Thread the fork through a single-hole concrete block and use the included zip tie to attach the float to the top bush.
Step 5: Install the UglyTree Upright in at least 6ft of water
It is recommended that UglyTree habitats be installed in clusters of 3-4 trees spaced ~5ft apart to achieve the best dense cover.
