    Default PVC Beds??


    Hey guys i was wondering if anyone has tried to make pvc crappie beds like we do bamboo ones?? I work at a plumbing store and we have tons of damaged pvc pipe and tons of buckets and it would be easy for me to build them. If anyone knows if these work good or not please inform me!! THanks

    Default pvc beds

    They work great! What I do is get a five gallon bucket put a 10 foot piece of 1 1/2 pvc in it, fill it with concrete.
    Then drill 7/8 holes in it and put 4 foot 1/2 pvs through the holes, then hot glue your joints. The most important thing when you sink them put a jug on top of them about 6 inches.

    jug adds flotation to keep them upright.
