Uh, guys, we sank as much osage orange (hedge apple) as we could get our hands on; it will last 20+ YEARS underwater. am not saying it`s easy to work with BUT if you want some fish attractors that are biologically supportive AND very long lasting THIS is the stuff ! save the branches 1" to 2" in diameter and set it in buckets, add cement and 8- 20 feet of water and put them out enmass !
