Anybody know any reason for not using hackberry for brush piles? My neighbor had a pretty good sized hackberry tree cut down and I asked for the limbs. I know when what y'all call Lake Lewisville (Garza-Little Elm to me), Hubbard, Lavon, and Grapevine still had timber standing in them when I was I kid, it didn't seem to make much difference what kind of trees we fished around; they all seemed to hold crappie. There weren't any pines, but my experience on Palestine is they didn't like them much when it was filling up and I never use it now. The highway department just cut down a bunch of stuff on a right away near my house and they're mostly winged elms, hackberry, yellow root and other, what I call, bitter woods. I've never used those species as brush, but it's free and so am I, plus I've got lots of concrete. I know they don't last as long as condos, but it's free. Get it? What you think?

By the way, that's right of way, not right away.

Brush is brush in my opinion.

No.
