I used 10" PVC in my popup conversion and it worked out well. Some people say you lose too many fish getting them out of the hole, but I didn't have that problem. I could usually tell how well they were hooked while they were still in the water and if it was questionable I would flip them out with my big dipper. Just remember to put the buckets down before you clean the shavings out of the holes so they will be sealed. If you don't, you will have wind coming up the holes and the shack will be hard to heat.
It seems to go from zero to hero all some have to do is lie.

bad news once again...... i am not going to have the money this year to build a house. i have to buy a new auger. priorities first, i guess..  i will probably build it this summer when i earn a little bit more money.  So anyways, i was thinking im gonna buy a strikemaster. i was thinking a lazermag express, not the one with the solo engine, but the style before that. what do you guys think I should buy? thanks
