From time to time I pick up plastic bottles that blow into the lake and I was thinking what can be done with them.

If I tied a bottle every 4 inches to a piece of Spiderwire/strong fishing line, and then tied the end of the string to a brick, would this not create some type of tree, bush, or structure/cover for Bass or Crappie?

Would there be any advantage of cutting off the tops of the bottles or cutting them in half then bundling them together so shiners could use them as kind of a cave?- Almost like a pyramid of half bottles or would this be too small?

I just hate to throw these bottles in a landfill of hope they get to a recycling plant.

Thanx
