Seldom trapper Joined: Mar 2007 Midland, MI.	I used 1 1/2” (1.75 sq”) homemade pogos on 15”-16” 3/32” cable in sand and clay with absolutely no problem in well over 20 years! It’s all about square inches of soil displacement! The ONLY soil type that I found where 1 1/2” pogos didn’t hold to my expectations was in muck, forcing me to switch to 2” (3.14sq”) washers which held!! Last edited by Seldom; Yesterday at 06:38 PM.
