Get whatever your gona put in thebottem then get something tofloat on if nessecary and hammer it in with a sludge hammer. If the ground is to hard then i don't know what to do maybe hammer harder.

If there is soft ground just go what Beaver said.

If the ground is hard you can put concrete into buckets with 4 bolts sticking out to the top of the concrete. Put them on the bottem of the lake and bolt the rail part onto the concrete contaniers. But Beaver idea is alot more 'solid' then mine. Mine I would only use if the ground was like concrete.

Yah concrete would rock around alot just use your strenght if the grounds hard or dive down there with some kinda drill and start a hole like a big hand drill or something.Haha that didn't really make sense but whatever.
