walshie 2,804 Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Any ideas on how to build a landing stage on a small pond big enough to fish from? It's quite deep in most places but I found a part that's only 3-4 ft deep. I was thinking along the lines of 2 scaffold poles hammered into the bottom of the pond as the front legs, then poles coming back to land, then somehow fixing boards or planks across. Sounds a bit easy. Any (sensible) idea much appreciated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

walshie 2,804 Posted October 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Do I need to treat the poles with anything or are they galvanised? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
