Slow at the shop.. Boss gave us the day off.. Losing my mind I decided to take a trip into home depot to see what I could get myself into.. Having paid around $50 for my last sand spike and needing another one I decided to give it a shot and this is the end result.. I'm calling this my 30minute prototype for now..

Oh and that cost around $30 with material left over for the next one..

Should do the job.

Heading down to your guys' neck of the woods to try it out now..

Hell yeah! Looks perfect!

Looks solid.

The PVC pipe used to hold your rod seems too long. If a shark takes down your rig and does a long steady run, getting it out of the pipe might be a pain. Let us know how it hold up after a couple of trips to the surf.

Worked just as good as they one I bought from the pro shop.. When you get your bite just pull the whole thing out, let the spike drop off, and fight the fish.. I just put a 4.5' soupfin on the sand with it.. My point is that I don't lose my $300 rig.. And for me.. It served it's purpose..
