 Today we're going to show you a little bit about how to build a floating fish attractor. In fact we're going to build a living floating fish attractor, one that has plants associated with it. This is built out of a variety of materials. The main piece is a wooden shipping pallet. See like this one right here. And you can get these often as kind of surplus behind a lot of department stores, other places where they ship a lot of materials. Of course ask first before you take one. Sometimes they recycle these so you want to make sure that it's okay to remove them but often they're perfectly willing to let you have these for free. So we're going to use that as the base and then we're going to put living material on top of that. Of course we have to have some soil. This soil is a mixture of clay and potting soil that we make our top soil that we've mixed together. If we use just the top soil it's too light and we'll tend to float away. But if we use clay mixed with it'll kind of hold together a little better. So we've got a mixture of that. We're going to cover the bottom of this because this obviously has some big holes in it. We're going to cover the bottom with some landscaping fabric to hold that soil in. And then we're going to also put some pool noodles, the floating pool noodles in there to provide flotation. This flotation each one of these pool noodles will support about 40 pounds of flotation and they're closed cell foam so they'll last a long time and provide the flotation to keep this on the surface. So this will go inside the shipping pallet. We'll attach all that with some staples and some cable ties and we'll also of course need to attach this to the bottom while we want it to float at the surface. We don't want it to float away. So we'll have an anchor, a concrete block anchor and some cabling that will cable it to the bottom. Now one of the critical pieces as we do cable it is this swivel. We're going to put a swivel in line on that cable that we cable it to the anchor so that it doesn't twist and it doesn't break the cable. So that's an important thing to remember. Finally once we have all the soil and everything attached we're going to plant our plants into the top of this material with some bird netting just to hold the plants in place on the top of this of this pallet. We have wetland plants today that we're going to be using. Theoretically you could even put garden plants and float that out onto a pond but in our in our case we want to just use wetland plants. They're from this area they're from this pond so we don't worry about brine and weeds are causing any problems. So we'll just establish those in the dirt then we'll take it out we'll launch it in the pond and the fish will then aggregate underneath this in the shade underneath this living material.
