That looks looks a great idea. I am going to try to make one for next spring.

Do you have any idea how deep the water is where you place it and how far the lower end of the foot valve is off the lake bottom?

I have tried a couple of different setups over the last 20 plus years and I still feel like I am picking up too much sand and the filters need changing too often. Thank you
