mixing it up a little

I just got back from dropping these beds. I sunk the 12' or 13' duct bed and then sunk 5 wood beds around it. They're setting at the junction of two creek channels in 13 fow.

Looks like its coming rite along for ya..... Does the water depth fluctuate where you are @? we have a 10' swing so 'm dumping mine 10 to 14 now, but it'll be 9' deeper this summer.

We don't usually have much fluctuation, but Pomme is down almost a foot under normal pool right now. They carry about 2' of additional water during the spawn to allow the fry access to the willows and brush along the bank, so about 3' deeper come Spring. Pomme's a flood control lake, so some years we don't see normal pool till late Summer and a heavy rain may raise the water level 5' to 7'. A few years back, the Corp did some work on the stilling basin below the dam and dropped the lake level 5' in the fall. We had a dry Fall and the water level dropped another foot. My favorite Spring beds were visible, now they're fished to death. I think I'm ready for next Spring though, We've put out 80 or more beds this year, 13 in the last 3 trips to the lake.

Think you will LIKE the results; don`t know exactly WHY the 2 types work better together, but have repeatedly seen they do...

Sounds like a NICE location....Both you and the fish will enjoy the new dwellings!
