Get a sawzall, cut the plates off, pound them into the pond. Do what ewest and a few others do, rope around the tree, loop one end of the rope around the pipe.

Still holding water??


Scott,
I'm not sure what you mean when you can pound them into the pond.. I was thinking about just drilling a 1" hole in each end. That should let them sink. They'd just lay flat on the bottom with the thickest part of the cedar trunk tied to the pipe, and extend upward. Would that work?


9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
