    Artificial structure?

    Have you guys tried making plastic trees with pvc pipe and cement blocks? If so what worked and didnt work?
    Have a are that needs some help and want something that will last but can get lures thru better than real brush.

    ive made them for crappie fishing, they work .have been known to hold a bass or two. just remember once you put them in the water they arent yours anymore.cause they will be found.
