Consulting and Asset enhancement
Property Investors and Management
Not all of our clients are recreational anglers, but rather those who work with those outdoorsman to manage or buy their dream property. We work nationwide to consult with property managers, investors, and developers to get the lakes and ponds on a property to peak condition. Whether your needs are beautiful fountains and clear water to trophy bass and beneficial weeds for wildlife, or you need the input from outdoorsman on what we believe a potential sportsman would want most out of the property, we can consult and work with you to achieve the premium property you need.
Fishery Development & Stocking Programs
We have extensive experience building the kind of fishery that excites serious sportsmen buyers. From Largemouth Bass that grow 10+ pounds to balanced forage bases that make for fun fisheries for the grandkids, we create sustainable fisheries that become major benefits to any property, whether it’s a new development or a retiree’s dream recreational respite.
Lake Assessment & Optimization
We can’t appropriately consult you without first knowing the facts on the ground. A full suite of data and information, like dissolved oxygen profiles, alkalinity, electrofishing surveys, Secchi disk clarity, nutrient levels, and thermal stratification mapping, are core information that helps us identify easy opportunities to quickly bring the property to a better standing and set it on the course of long term success. Our team identifies issues quickly and proposes targeted treatments to deliver clear, healthy water that looks great and supports a robust ecosystem.
Strategic Habitat Design & Deployment
We can turn barren and low-productivity lakes into thriving ecosystems in part due to utilization of habitat design and deployment. Depending on budget, we will formulate the perfect mix of permanent artificial habitat (Ugly Trees), natural cedar trees, rock piles, trenches, and fish feeders. We also take into account watershed, and propose vegetation management that helps keep the water quality optimal. We design habitat placement for maximum productivity while creating highways, feeding zones, and nursery areas that support both fish and wildlife.

Aeration & Year-Round Lake Health Systems
When your potential customers come to see the property, people are naturally drawn to see the water. Water is a natural place for us to congregate, and most people’s vision of peace and tranquility. That vision can quickly be muddied with a stagnant, smelly lake covered in algae and lacking movement. Fountains or bottom-diffused aeration are a key way to prevent summer stratification, algae blooms, and winterkill. We can consult your local management team or come do the work with our own team, and size, install, and maintain systems that keep the entire water column mixed, oxygenated, and productive which are critical for both northern winter survival and southern summer lake performance.

Aesthetic Enhancements & Buyer Appeal
We know that aesthetics are an important part of creating a property that people want to live or recreate on. Whether you’re looking for small updates to an already great property, or are setting out to design and build an entirely new waterfront, we help consult and create visually stunning features with fountains, pond dye, selective beneficial weed management, family zones, habitat, trees, and even lake design before a shovel ever touches dirt. We help you understand exactly what outdoor enthusiasts or new home buyers want so your property stands out in listings or when new customers come for a viewing.
Property Evaluation Boost
We can consult with you on any size or scale project, from initiating water treatment all the way to multi-year development and design projects. We deliver professional assessment reports, and move for fast implementation so the lake or pond becomes a highlighted asset instead of a question mark on closing day. While wildlife management like trophy deer can take years to see material benefit, fisheries benefit quickly from increased habitat, food, and water quality management. If you are looking to deliverable measurable increases in value and buyer interest, increasing the quality of a lake or fishery is a surefire way to see great bang for your buck.
