Keith, the tank looks like a wire spool bomb exploded in it. My little cream puff sadly had to wait.

As a predator, I've been pondering the concepts of structure, cover and edge for a long time. Generally, just pondering. And, most life forms are different. My thoughts, as usual, are both incomplete and always evolving.

Well done, Al. When one can focus entirely on a project undisturbed, the results are evidently robust. I like it a lot.

Those porcupine hubs will crack over time, so moving them often [which I have done to facilitate seining] will render them essentially useless as PVC holders. Strongly advise moving them as little as possible. At 10-bucks a throw for $2 worth of plastic, I was hoping for something more durable.

TJ, I completely agree about the spheres. I really do like them in deeper water though, and the assembly speed advantage is something I really need right now.

I'm thinking that if nothing changes with the weather, I'll get another 1.5' to 2' water drop by the end of October. I hope all the ones set closest to the dam are placed correctly. At 2' deep, I don't want to even think about moving them deeper.

Al consider the advantage of leaving the long pieces on and making a supplemental/add on pvc sphere to fit over the long pvc so you can slide it over the long piece to stack the structures.
