I tossed around a spinner for a couple hours after dropping the PVC trees, kept half a limit of Crappie and 16 gills. Through back many more Crappie and some smaller gills. Nice morning.

Those look good Ditch.
The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along
Those ought to pull them in! Looks like you were able to construct them on site.
Bob D,
I have to go light with a kayak. I create the bases with Quikrete in coffee containers at home. The upper section and the 1/2 tubing I drill and cut at home. Once on site I put it together and paddle each out to my location and mark with a GPS.
Before I left I went back and tossed my spinner through them. Caught 5 Crappie out of them already, should be sweet this summer. They're in about 10 feet of water and are 5 feet tall. I can't wait to drag jigs through them spider rigging!
Nice sir. I do the same but I don't use coffee cans. Got that fancy single deal. I use the new laundry individual packs container. Do you use plastic or rubber on the tubing ditch ?
It's 1/2" polyethylene drip tubing that's used in landscaping irrigation systems. I buy 500 foot rolls off Amazon for about $45. That's enough material for about 10 of these.
WTG...good job
That will work.
When nothing is going right, Just go fishing.

Still a work in progress. I have some I dropped last year that were above water over the fall draw down. They survived the winter fine and are back under water now. I started catching fish around them a couple weeks after they were put in the water so I know they work to hold fish. I'm hoping they'll last at least 5 years or more. I have some PVC structures that I sank in high school over 30 years ago in Texas. They are still there and hold fish to this day. I don't mind spending a little money for a long term investment. I plan to add at least one piece of structure each time I go fishing this year, hopefully it will add up over time.
