One made of Oak or Sycamore.

In all honesty for bass fishing christmas trees are overrated. Your much better off using Oak, Sycamore, Osage Orange or some type of hardwood.

I understand, but I am buying a Christmas tree and want to throw it in my "spot" when I'm done with it and want to buy the best one for the job!  Probably going with the Balsam Fir!

I would say you are probably right going with the fir.  Considering all the xmas tree possibilities they are probably going to last the longest under water.  Unless your local xmas tree dealer sells Cypress trees.  ;)

Uh, since wood does not rot without oxygen no particular type of wood last any longer than any other. And before I hear the ole H2O reply, that's only works for trees that are alive, these are dead. But Catt these trees are alive I water them every day, well then go plant that sucker in the ground.

The reason I dislike conifers is because in my experience it takes longer for conifers to hold bait. Along the Louisiana coast we have a program that collect Christmas trees and builds coastal barriers to stop erosion.

Better not get caught by the DNR!  They frown on that around here. (to put it lightly)

I've found that it's best to talk your neighbor into doing it, then tell you where it is.  ;)

Conifers will take longer to start holding bigger gamefish because there isn't as much room for them to hide until the needles are gone. They grow moss on them pretty quick and start attracting small yearling bluegills and other small fish, crawdads, and other invertebrates quickly as well. Until the needles are gone or thinned out and they bass can get to them there isn't much reason for them to hang around them unless there is nothing else in that area.
