Car Battery for weight?
Would it be a bad idea to ecase a old 12v battery in a bucket of concrete to help sink a masive bundle of bamboo?
I had one on hand and if I drain the acid and wash out before I cover with concrete? Only polution would be the lead that I can think of. Might the concrete keep the lead contained?

I have seen a couple batteries used for brush weights during a big drawdown a few years back. I wouldn't do it. One thing that I don't like to see is guys using old hydraulic oil buckets to sink brush. I feel like they can not be completely cleaned out. We have a lot of loggers in our area.

Please don't.
I love taking my kids fishing, now if I could just manage to fish at the same time.

Use the car battery or move to Texas?Originally Posted by fish_4_all
OP, in their own GENTLY way they are advising you to seek other forms of weight. Probably not the best idea...a nearby rock (natural) or a cinder block would do just as well and not cause any detriment to the ecosystem.
