    Default Bush to go with the tree?


    Made a plastic tree a while back and had a couple of good trips over it. Nothing super yet but they haven't been down long. So with the idea that plastic is forever I downsized from the tree to the bush, and here it is, destined to be wet this weekend. Branches are about 7' from end to end and a few are shorter, and it's about hip high. I'm thinking a couple of stake buckets would help keep it company.

    Same material as Moss Back fish rack. They are corners from melon or pineapple skids that are over 6' tall and come apart easy without these corners. routed the initial hole in a V shape to start with and had to open them up some to fit as no 2 of these are quite the same. The only cost was the concrete.

    What`s the WORSE that could happen? Looks like it might work! (Good idea adding the stake buckets; where there is wood AND PVC the 2 types seem to work well together...)

    Looks good to me, wouldn't think it will take long to produce fish if in a good location.
