    Hi,

    I can't exactly tell how many concrete blocks you need?...But, if you use cynder blocks...One on each end will sink it...If your using rocks?....Make sure you balance out the weight...If you don't?.....It won't sink right....

    I would recommned using cynder blocks...One on each end in the middle.......Stake bed pallets will hold fish...But, they are to much of pain for me....I drop concrete wood slab condos...

    Better weight that PVC or it could move or be moved by someone hanging it with a line or anchor.

    I sunk one pallet with one cinder block. Was going to try to make a "bed", ran into a time crunch and just sunk the pallet whole, on end. Haven't been back to fish it yet. Had the crazy thought that something was better than nothing. They sank very quick to.
