    a sealed off 2 liter tied to the top of them with nylon will make them stand and easy to find as well , just thought .
    used to do that on stuff that wasn't boo and it worked really well. typically it isnt the current that knocks them over , it is more often than not an anchor or someone jerking on them with braid

    How about using some 65 lb. braid that i don't use to tie a 2 liter bottle on with? What else could a man use that hooks wouldn't get hung in besides braid or nylon rope?

    I actually thought about wiring one to them real tight but didn't know if anybody had a less snaggy idea. Thanks

    Old extension cord. Use a laundry detergent jug with a loop handle. IF you are concerned about tipping. My structure is intentionally made wider so it doesn’t matter if it tips over.

    I’d actually thought about that since I still have 8 blocks left to sink.
