A bloke at my previous job strapped his shitty old trailer to the boat and launched it with the trailer attached. They drove out to their reef and cut the straps. **** I laughed when he told me about it. If you see a reefy patch on the sounder in 5m in the middle of a sandy desert off Chelsea it might be his mark.
The issue with the DIY reefs is that the stuff people are building them from can have contaminants in them which can leak out, so if people use old bits of metal and concrete that’d be heaps better than stuff that’s full of lubricants and other ****.
DIY FADs would be pretty easy to make, chain a bunch of cinder blocks together and tie on a length of rope with a 10l drum at the end. Plonk a bunch of them in water deep enough that the drum is 10-15m below the surface so it doesn’t tangle up a ship and you’d have your own private kingy mark.
