i am gunna put some trees out and was wondering how yall have done it connecting them together or what thanks

1 cinder block per tree....tie a coke bottle to the top to keep them upright ounce they get water logged.....put 5-6 out in rack location....just the way I do it...

i was thinking of tieing 3 together in a triangle would that be too close together

I wouldn't think so...

hope fully i can get about a dozen of them but we will see

That'll do nicely but you should take some cutters and remove a few branches here & there to give pockets for fish to hide in. Usually Christmas trees are pretty thick, too much so for the fish to "get into". Just MHO.

Go over to 155 and the SW Loop Christmas day and load up all you want. Last year I saw them piled up back behind where the tent was at.

thats what i wasnt sure about if i needed to cut some branches

and MrRoacie are you talking about where they sell them

I saw them there too. Yes, behind the tent they sell them out of. I heard you can also get all you want at Home Depot & Lowes on the 26th.

home depot has some already in a dumpster you can pick up. I did in dallas at forest and 635.

thanks ill have to check that out how deep of water do yall think i should put them in

15-25

I usually try to decide when I do most of my fishing. March, April, & May, I put them in 7' - 13' feet of water. Then for June - December we put them in 13' - 20' feet of water. So if you get fish all year round, we put them in ALL depths. Most go in the 13' - 20'. If just putting out 5-6 (Locations) Brush Piles. I would put them all in what ever depth you figure to fish most.



keith

yeah i was thinking of around 20 got some trees today hopefully get started on them soon and get more trees

this my opinion; and experience
the spot should be 10x 10 ft to be effective, 1 lonsome tree not much good. Place on edge of drop off, on deepside, Out in open area a 12x12 on a hump where water is 12-18 ft is go. Irregular surfaces along creeks and in bends or curves on outside of curve also. Anchor them GOOD.
thats all I have to offer.
