We had a chance to get on the lake for a little work. Drove 400 stakes in 6 to 10 ft of water. The video doesn`t have any sound (my first video). Hope this helps your stake bed building.

Looks good. I'm driving my own beds so I can appreciate the hard work.
Alot of work but they pay you back for years to come,great video.
how do you plan to fish your stake bed, vertical jig or troll over the tops ?? are those tomato stakes you're using?
Would pvc work instead of wood?
I will vertical jig and spider fish these. The stakes are actually tobacco sticks that I found in NE Tn.Quote:

Good idea. I especially liked how you use the anchors to keep stakes staggered.
hello guys i am new to this site and am thinking of building some type of structure. i love fishing for crappie but have recently been looking into fishing for bluegills.. How do you find the best spot to put the beds at, and i watched your video and it was very good what was the white tube you were using to drive the stakes in.. i am trying to get as much info as possible and from skimming through this site this is definitely where to get it....thanks
