Good stuff. My Granny taught me this when I was young. I've used it over the years too. She used to do this to her fruit tree's when I was younger. When I moved into my home a few years back there were Blue Spruces that had been planted and were not doing well at all. They were young and pretty much dying. I caught some bass and buried them next to the tree's. They're huge now and have recovered very nicely.
