I saw a simple but very sturdy table made of 4 by fours and 2 by sixes; about 5 ft. by 5. ft. It was about 5 ft high and was actually on the side of the pond. The pond owner said that it kept the feeder safe from a sudden water rise and was pretty well hog proof. He had about a dozen of these around his 12 acre lake. The legs were concreted in. He had built some simple steps with 2 x 4's on the sides of each table. You could tell that the water had been on them at normal level. At the time I visited, the lake was about 4 ft. low. At normal pool, the table top would have been a ft. above water level.

You could use the 2 inch pipe for legs and angle iron to build a tray for the top. Then put some 2 by wood in the tray to hold the feeder. Bolt it or wire it down.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
