    Winter storage outside - old tires as a base?

    My ~72 fish is going to be stored outside in northern MA, off trailer this year. I'm wondering if a reasonable approach would be to put it deck-down on a few old tires.

What would you recommend I do to then attach the old sheet to a block on the bridle? Is there a preferred way to do this? Thank...
