It seems to be that a few years ago there was an article on this site that showed how to make a huge beetle trap that you could float on the pond and the bugs would drop directly into the water. It called for cutting the bottom out of a five gallon jug like you have in water coolers, placing it in a certain size inner tube, I think it was the 13 inch size of a Volkswagen beetle, and a giant beetle attractor you could buy on the internet. Floating it on the lake drew the bugs away from plants and never needed to be emptied. It seems like the story was that bluegill hung around it like they do to a bug lite or feeder.
