    Default Too much water time to build cover again


    I just got a pallet of concrete mix at a bargin today . A fishing buddy brought me a load of buckets , Once I gather up wooden stakes it is time to get to work . Then every trip fishing I can dump a load of stake buckets. Here is a photo from last summer building same type of cover . May try some a little taller this time .

    A friend and I are rounding up Christmas trees for a sinking outing later on in January. Probably gonna put them in White Oak Lake, but they may make a trip to Greeson. My cousin and I saw a couple load lots of bamboo cane bucket condos on a pontoon boat and head out across Greeson this past weekend. They made at least three trips. Yep, it's that time! GTT

    Nimrod is the stake buckets are not gonna be much taller than the ones in your picture and you run out of bucket you can use plastic dish pans from the dollar store. Once the concrete sets up you can pop the pan loose and reuse it over and over again

    Thanks , I have a connection on the buckets and making two out of each bucket . I put rocks to hold stakes in place and take up space before adding concrete mix. The thing we have trouble keeping enough is concrete, not to bad buying busted bags .
    These will probably get a road trip before getting a bath . Nimrod lake has plenty already .

    Mispelled road and can't correct it on orginal post . I will need to fish elsewhere with Nimrod still going over the dam . Might as well build habitat on other lakes at the same time . Nice getting see new waters more since gas is way down and road trips easier on the pocket .
