    Default Coffee Can Plantation


    Built from scraps from yard sales and donations from neighbors. Screws from yard sales and open box sales. Also friend at Lowes gets me defective pvc. Took about 2-3 years to accumulate the stuff.
    These particular ones will be placed in 5 gal bucket and filled with rock and quick crete. Takes about 50 pounds to keep pullers and pushers and spider riggers from moving them. Also fast draw down on Ky Lake will move about anything without enough weight. Bottom of the lake looks like a tumbleweed storm sometimes. Ice will also move stuff around.

    I am trying to beat back on what will probably eventually happen. I have had decades of practice at making attractors. Just about anything structure wise will hold fish if it is put in the right place.

    Thing about the pvc is if it ain't in the right place, I can pick it up and place it somewhere else.

    I let this can stuff sit in the sun a few months before placing in the water. Sun takes the "slick" out which allows algae to attach easily.

    If you're putting these in 5 gallon buckets, what are the coffee cans for?

    I like it. Good use of materials. And drinking all that coffee will give you the energy to build and splash them
    The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along
