    Default Save buckets. Do this.


    Take a five gallon bucket , fill it to within 5 inches of the top with dirt. This will end up being roughly 25pds of quickcrete. Take Vaseline and coat the remaining five inches all the way around the bucket on the inside of course. Then put a plastic shopping bag in the bucket, pour in the quickcrete, when it sets you can pull the Crete right out of the bucket and reuse the bucket,

    This is what it will look like. When I get to the drop zone I run a coated deck screw through the PVC and boo and bombs away.

    Those look to be easier to transport to the lake and build them in the boat.

    It works great. I usually take six out at a time. I'll wrap the boo up in my boat cover till I get to the drop zone and build it there.

    A few tips. Take a piece of the PVC with you when you cut the boo. Make sure the nuckel of the boo will fit into the pipe. The nuckel should be below the screw, so that if it splits , it will not be pulled out. Also drill 4 pilot holes into each PVC , so once your ready to attach the boo, you'll have plenty of angles to start the screw.

    Shot - I would suggest that you use heavy duty deck screws to hold the boo. They will not rust out as quick. Your idea is the best that I have seen in quite awhile. WTG!!
