Cosd Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 The answer is yes there is. Do a search in the DIY section, I've seen quite a few links in the past. Cos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakerboy Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) Use a ground spike and a hammer. Both are handy for bad weather to, when you need to tie your hide down to stop it blowing down Edited May 8, 2012 by bakerboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Chisum Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) My adjustable hide poles are ones I used carp fishing and have corkscrew type threads which screw easily into the ground. These are 8 foot long, maximum. Edited May 12, 2012 by John Chisum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simbasausage Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Just get a set of (5) pinewoods, they have a built in kick plate, also ideal for hooking your net around on windier days as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
