If you can't clear the trees, don't give up. I'm surrounded by Douglas Fir and Western Red Cedar, many in excess of 100' high. In windy weather I have some trouble, particularly with weaker signals. However, I can still watch TV. I'm using significantly larger antennas than indicated by by signal report.

In your application I'd suggest the Antennacraft HBU-44 pointed at about 325° (compass). If available use a location with less obstruction, but test reception before drilling holes in anything.

If the well is dry and you don't see rain on the horizon, you'll need to dig the hole deeper. (If the antenna can't get the job done, an amp won't fix it.)
