Puttputt,

I got this ideal from another site dedicated to catfishing....

I got four 18 gal cheap ($4) plastic totes from Lowes, added 2 to 4 inches of sand and gravel. I then drilled 6 holes around the rim to tie on the tops with plastic wire ties.

I then cut a 10 by 10 in. hole in the top of two and a 10 by 10 in. hole in one end of two others as I did not know which was best (still don't).

I then drilled 2 holes for a rope to tie them to a fallen tree or old duck decoys.

I plan to pull them out to replace the sand and gravel each year.

The way I see it is baby cats can be part of the food chain and I plan to be at the top.

Good luck,

Dennis
