crappiepappy I tie a single cinder block on the two middle verticle pipes (bottom) about half way up, the cord is tied to the 4" also, this causes the bottom pvc pipes to bury in the mud 6-10 inches till the block settles in, I've made 5 or 6 of these and looking at them with the aquavue camera none have tilted or turned over. and yes you're right, they are a pain in the butt to get 'launched'. I live on Lake Bistineau so we load the boat in the back yard and tow 2 or 3 of them out in a 14' alum and wrestle them over in the 'sweet spot'. it's hard to be descrete with somethin as obvious as they are, I get some strange looks AND questions. they do produce fish and I 'm satisfied with the investment

They do have these spheres in the bass pro in Pearl, ms.
I saw those at bass pro last weekend, Ican't remimber the price, but looks cool.

Hey DMANN436,
I just stole your idea. Built 2 of those this afternoon. I'll let you know how they work.

Would some old wooden kitchen chairs with cender blocks, wired to them work? :D I dropped 3 out in front of camp.
I know the Christmas tree works great too.

We stock a similar porcupine style structure where I work. They are the
O-NO hang fish habitat. They come in a forest greencolor. They are 1/2 inch pvc with an overall spread of six feet from side to side. Each side piece being three foot pvc 1/2 inch. I have used several of them in the past couple years and am very happy with their fish attracting abilities. Any questions you can go to their site at www.onohang.com or to our web site at www.JaysSportingGoods.com or send me a PM here.
It is not about the equipment you have to use,
It is about how you use the equipment you have. :D
