Lightbulb CRAZZZY thought tell me what you think…

Ok I live in an aria without reefs and our rock formations are small and far between…
Most of our terrain is grassy/sandy bottom with a max grass height of 2’. I have been hunting what structure I can but it has gotten a little repetitive (3 spots only) and I’m looking for some new ways to go about spearing. Im the only one on the island I know of that hunts in shore fish due to our low viz. (10’ max) but I have always filled my stringers with sheep’s head, flounder, mullet, small mangrove snapper and if I’m really luck a grouper or two (normally 1-10lbs they don’t get much bigger inshore). but like I said my holes are getting repetitive and I would like to let the fish have a break this year, I am going to try ambushing in the grass, but I would really like to know if there is another way to go about it. Could I build structures with dead trees tied down my cinder blocks? I don’t have a large boat nor the ability to move big rocks into formations. So whatever I do it will need to be on a smaller scale, below is an idea I have for a structure line up just go down the train and hit the home made structures, it would take me a few days to build. Tell me what you think…. The pic is self explanatory depth scale to the left side, distance scale at the bottom. Rough boat positioning and I will run the line from the down current side (probably left to right). The structures would be drift wood/dead trees and stumps tied down and held in place with cinder blocks. Each set up would be roughly 10’ in diameter and would probly be dome shaped for better integrity. Im hoping it would bring it bait fish and in re-turn bring in some snapper/grouper and over time sheep’s head.
