Wanting to add some man made structure in a local reservoir. Wondering if you have any ideas of a simple structure that is easy to build and haul in a boat. Any pictures are always good also, thanks in advance!

Take a look in the Crappie cover, lake structure forum here. Enough reading to last a week.[emoji846]

Agree with Ketchn. Easy to make with bamboo in cinder blocks with a tad of sackcrete to hold it. Lasts forever and allows your jig to slip off most of the times if you get too deep into it. Toughest part is balancing it on the way to where you drop it. Attracts lots of attention is why I do it first light. It also catches the wind so you really cannot scoot down the lake too fast with it on your deck. Fishermen further north like willow. We do not have much of that here in central Texas but have loads of boo.

Thanks for the ideas!
willows are often king as they are on the shore easy to cut and a cinder block on the trunk will do it .
lots of crappie guys here drag them after they cut them close to where they want to drop them .
nothing on the planet will bring crappie faster in this part of the world for sure and about nothing will decay quicker as well , just saying :cheers2
take your chainsaw and bricks to the lake. Cut down shoreline trees and make your own. Natural to the area. Dont have to put trees in your boat.
I used to stop on the access road to a little lake and cut a wad of youpons. Tied it up and drug it out with a rope. once i got to my spot, I anchored the troller and tied on my brick and dropped it. No brush in the boat.
I don't cut down shoreline timber, but I do trim the lower limbs from the shoreline trees. I just load up cinder blocks and throw a roll of bailing wire and some cutters in the boat. It makes jig fishing the trees easier with the limbs trimmed and I sink the limbs for summer/winter patterns.
Is this even legal?Sent from my E6810 using Crappie.com Fishing mobile app
