    Default Finally got started


    Been wanting to build and make some stuff to sink for a while and finally got somebody to help! Sunk some a few years ago by myself and knew I needed help doing this. We got started with bunch of pipe I have been saving and when we get it used up I will go to bamboo.

    Looks good but you don't need that much concrete unless u are sinking in a lot of current

    If may "suggest", "C" trees and natural cover shallow to deep in lines, with PVC on the deep ends. Works like gang busters, the BEST of BOTH.

    Or you want them to stay in place!
    If someone does "find" his stash, then they cannot put them up or tear them up!

    Looks good what's the diameter of the center stem of PVC. I was given some moss back racks as a gift and these look similar. So I was thinking of something like this for my next project.

    Be careful in harbor as one fellow lives in house likes to use grapple hook and pull stuff apart and off from down there. Seen it done. I put mine away from there.

    We put out 8-10 Vertical Tree's in the past like the one shown above in the thread. We did catch a few fish off of these structure.





    We have had better luck with the Horizontal PVC Structure. But had far better action and catches on the Horizontal Structures. Doesn't require but a 2-Liter Bottle of cement on each end of Horizontal Structure. We put 3 of these Structure down at every location. Makes for a 15' diameter.





    Not saying we didn't have little successs with the Vertical Structures, just had more success with the Horizontal Structures, and less cost in Cement.
