There are many ways to recycle Christmas trees, but tossing them on a frozen lake to create fish habitat may not be the best idea and may require a permit from the DNR.
Fish attractors tend to bring fish and fishermen together, said Bill James, chief fisheries biologist for the DNR Division of Fish & Wildlife. They provide cover but dont necessarily grow more fish.
Better options include taking the tree to a designated Christmas tree recycling site in your community, tossing it in the backyard to provide shelter for wintering birds, running it through a wood chipper to create your own mulch, chopping it up for firewood.

Take last April, for instance. Tamis first muskie a 42 incher came on a tadpole.
