Willow first then oak. Nothing wrong with cedar though, or bamboo for that matter.

Willow, or whatever is available on the bank closest to where you are planning on sinking the pile.

What about foilage on the brush tops that you sink. I saw on on this site where some guys were burning the leaves off of there brush before sinking it. I always thought the green leaves or foilage would attract the fish. Please tell me you thoughts people.

don't worry about it...I like the green better myself...I'm guessing they just wanted to hide it better..

when using bamboo...green or brown(dry) which is better?
Using the site for a while...this is really great to share fishing ideas and success with others.
