Sewer pipe structure
 
Some months ago, I read about using rolls of sewer pipe in building
artificial reefs/structure. My Bassmaster magazine is back home ( 1200 miles
away).

Does anyone have a site or reference about building those things? It
appeared a great way to introduce structure to a lake that has a problem
with growing natural weeds, etc. Thanks RichG

While we're waiting for someone to look that up for you, take a gander at
the "Building Structure" string below... we mentioned using black corrugated
drain pipe to create fish attractors.

Structure can be made using PVC pipe by making trees or other shapes.
Cement culverts can be placed in the water standing on its edge as long as
it is sunken low enough that it will not obscure boat traffic. You can even
lay it down for cover. Piles of rocks or gravel make good structure.

Any type of structure will attract bait fish. Bait fish will feed off the
structure ecosystem.
