Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

I was thinking a mia x will work also, with some displacement of the geometry for the front part, and another exact same material for beyond the fence except with noise. But I could be Waaaaaaay off. :-)
However, I'm curious if it will work using a colored shader (black gray in your case), and make it transparent enough to see through. I see some signs on the bottom, and muck. I'm not sure if that's significant to you.
Good luck!

I don't know what your actual environment is, but if it going to look like the reference, see if you can "calm" the waters a little bit. The first one - blinn with noise bump - water is too rough, but perfect for beyond the fence. The third one with just the ocean shader looks too pattern-like.
The reference looks like its in a quiet little corner of a lake, abandoned, calmness of the water with the chaotic mess - I like it a lot!!
Murambi's version is not bad, but I feel it's a little too rough.
Good luck! It's not going to happen overnight...working with shaders forces you to just push it just a little bit more.
I look forward to your completed project or progress....I just really love love the reference...I don't know why.
