Sunk some brush this a.m.

[Tex_79]

someone somewhere has a stand of boo they would love you to thin out .
boo is strange stuff though , when its leaved up lots of small fish will be all over it .
when the leaves go away a few better fish with hang around it sometimes .
but in the end real large crappie seem to prefer more substance as cover and want heavier limbed cover in my experience .
hardwoods of larger diameters if you want to find a dream fish , smaller diameters if you want to load the boat is my thoughts .
KABOOM is the word

Sounds like I’m gonna have to sink a few different kinds of cover, give myself and the fish some options! Thanks for the advice, I’ve learned quite a bit reading through your posts, right now I can usually find a few fish but I’m far from having them figured out. Lol

Good job...like the portability factor as well.

those look great. I wish we could plant piles here.

I put out these mulberry limbs on Wednesday

Fished it this Monday and caught this one on the first drop



A. Really good tree for brush piles is mesquite, it takes very little weight to sink it and will last a long time

That’s a nice fish! Hopefully I’ll have a chance to check my pile this weekend, If I can pull one like that off of it I’ll be happy!

That’s good to know about the mesquite, I’ve got mesquite everywhere around me

In east texas big oak is a favorite for big fish
But one of the fastest to gather fish is a big willow,but its short lived in the water

Fake trees from Goodwill augmented with branches and bamboo cemented in the bottom of the vase make great condos top.

Now that's repurposing at it's best.

How do unhook the rope after sinking them?

I just put an eye bolt in the concrete with a big fender washer on the end to keep it from pulling out. Once I was where I wanted to sink them I put the rope through and doubled it, let them down to the bottom and pulled one end of the rope back through the eye bolt
