You can always bring branches to lake too. If no rock available you can use a cinder block. I do enjoy stake buckets and have sunken wooden ones. I have caught a lot of crappie off both my brush piles and stake buckets. Working on some PVC buckets right now that will be assembled at drop location.
    DrNip, we don't have any rocks or riprap around and I'm not sure about cutting at the lake but I'm planning on a few stake beds also. Thank you

    I started building some "crappie condos" this weekend. I'm starting off with bamboo. Plan on making at least 2 dozen. I also took some ideas y'all gave me and drilled and cut holes in a plastic drum and ran cane thru the top. I'll see how good one works before I make more

    Yeah wait til spring and summer when leaves are back to put you some sweet gum out!

    10-4 that's the plan man! Juicy, in your pics all you put was some scrap iron for weight? Does it stay where you sink it pretty good?

    Looks great you could take some large cane and put 4 two ft. legs out the bottom. They will settle in the silt and it will never move
