[QUOTE=mur9978]Hey everyone, I'm new to this board but have been really impressed so far. I'm sure this question has been asked before but I'll ask anyway. What's everyone's experience/opinion of pvc structure? How does it compare to the condos I've read about? Also would like to hear any unusual design ideas anyone might have. I've got a few in mind (stakebeds, trees) but want to make sure I'm not missing anything.[/QUOTE=Buckshot]Best and the cheapist way to go is the sphere. You can use scrap 1/2 in pvc or buy thin wall. Color of pipe will not make any difference as long as it's 1/2 in pvc. Make 2 1/2 ft attractor using 12 in pipe- 4 ft attractor use 21 in pipe- 5 1/2 ft attractor use 30 in pipe. This works for water 3 ft deep to 25 ft deep
and no hangs or snags. Different ways to put out, place on bottom with weight, use foam for floating attractor then pull attractor down to what ever deepth you want to suspend it using weight. Best results I have had, start shallow 4 ft, place attractors 6 ft apart, go down your slope or ledge with attractors. This is like putting up a fence, allows you structure at all deepths for any time of the year. It will hold the fish for you.
