Workers arrange woody debris in the North Branch of the Au Sable River. (Michigan DNR photo)Fisheries managers have been adding woody cover, often whole trees, to trout streams for close to a century. During the 1930s, the federal Civilian Conservation Corps spent countless hours building what have come to be known as lunker structures in some of the states most notable trout streams.
Over the course of the last two decades, the Michigan DNR and fisheries conservation groups have reinvigorated the campaign to increase woody cover in streams, led by efforts along the Au Sable River that use helicopters to drop whole trees into the various branches of one of Americas most famous trout streams.
But the placement of woody debris in streams can provide benefits in addition to giving trout a place to hide. Properly placed, woody cover can improve the function of streams, including helping to manage and move sediment that covers up gravel valuable spawning and aquatic insect habitat in the stream.
