    Default Starting small


    Put this in a bucket today, and I know how grabby they can be. This will be the center, and several stake buckets will go around it and hopefully make them more accessible and a bit less grabby. No P/U to gather in so I missed the loads others got. Will post more when I have it. Also did this plastic tree and several coffee can / concrete / plastic shorts around it, and added 1 tree to make it easier to find, that is holding fish. And all free but the concrete.

    I have read on here that it is best to cut some of the limbs so it will more places for the fish to hide.[

    What did you use for the limbs on the plastic tree? I am trying to make something similar to assemble out on the water and then drop. I was thinking about using vinyl siding pieces or smaller tubes of PVC. Something that is cheap from lowes will do or if I can find it free even better.

    I'd recommend stuffing bamboo pieces inside of it. It tends to grow algae quicker. The bamboo that i cut is really tall (at least 30ft) so the bottom pieces would work good for something like that if you dont want the leaves. Plus its free if you can find someone who will let you cut some. I'm dropping some tomorrow and ill post picks of them built.
