Wildlife Pond Design

Having a water feature on your land not only creates wonderful wildlife viewing for you but also quickly becomes a go-to water source for animals. Let us help you identify the proper site location, navigate permits, and establish aquatic vegetation.

 

Stream Enhancements

We can help improve stream morphology, stabilize stream banks, create greater resiliency to high water events, and establish a strong vegetative buffer zone. Let these parameters enhance your stream habitat. If applicable to your site, there are additional trout habitat improvements worth exploring.

 

Wetland Restoration

Did you know 75% of all Wisconsin wildlife depends on wetlands at some point in their lifecycle? Let us help you bring out the best of your wetland, whether that be restoring hydrology, controlling invasive species, or developing a wetland scrape.

 

Fishery Improvement

Suitable fish habitat is often lacking in waterbodies, especially human-created ponds or lakes. We offer natural oak fish cribs, shoreline tree drops within the littoral zone, and the addition of native vegetation. Bulrushes are a preferred emergent aquatic plant that benefits many systems. All of these natural additions help maintain a quality fishery.
