    It looks good but how you gonna sink it? I've been making some out of pvc pipe. I stick 5 sticks of 3/4" pvc in a bucket of concrete, drill holes randomly in the pipe and stick 1/4" irrigation tubing tubing about 3' long trough the holes. Then I take two pieces of the larger irrigation tubing and shove down into the end of the pvc. I'll see if I can post a pic.

    These aren't complete but you get the idea. When finished they will have holes drilled randomly through each piece of PVC and I'll insert the 1/4" tubing through them to kind of create limbs. I've built them in various heights all the way from 3' tall to 7' tall depending on how deep of water I intend to dunk them.

    Both of those are pretty neat and should attract a lot of fish.

    Fetmo, I really like the looks of it. Especially if it stays upright, it should produce some good fish. I like how everything turns upwards....should limit snags. Did it take long to assemble?

    Looks good Fetmo! Should be snag free! I would mix up some Quik-Crete real soupy and pour about a foot deep into the big pipe. It should have a low center of gravity and it doesn't take much weight at all to sink PVC.

    Both look good to me, but I do see a concern about the top one staying upright.
