I don't and never have hunted water holes or salt licks. If you want to attract deer, add something with scent, like peanut butter. I've had a lot of pics of deer walking thru corn I had put out. Sometimes it took several days before they started to eat it. Joe does your pool have any plastic odor or maybe taste? Your loc on sticks out, deer look up too much now a days. I suggest adding some limbs. Hunt safe.

I suggest adding some limbs. Hunt safe. That stand hasn’t been hunted from in years. Just haven’t made the time to move it. I’m not doing this to get pictures of deer. That’s what a salt block is for this time of year. Only have a camera on it to see if it’s getting used. Water is limited on the property so just trying to add a small water source to see if they use it. $8 investment. Plastic smell might be an issue, but don’t see how it would be different than the plastic trash can I used in the other spot.

If your corn was untouched, you don't have many deer, period. I have used corn to help deer find new mineral sites, etc. and never had any problems. Hence the confusion by me. Certainly not high density deer population though.

The plastic likely smells like chemicals and they wont touch it. See this alot with treated lumber used on feeders if they are not left outside to weather before putting them out But they should take to it with time as the smell fades?

Is it in a spot where deer travel, between bedding and food or near a food source? Or just in a spot you want deer to be?
I don't foresee the plastic being an issue for very long if at all, and deer patterns change depending on time of year.

I don't foresee the plastic being an issue for very long if at all. Yes, there is an open spot in a nearby fence. Historically frequent tracks in the area. Also 50 yards from our most productive food plot.

See this alot with treated lumber used on feeders if they are not left outside to weather before putting them out I put a feeder out I had built out of a 26gal air compressor tank last year, I had just painted it. Deer would not get anywhere near it for months. Same spot I just had a 5gal bucket feeder the deer stayed under. They feed under it almost every day now. Only thing I could figure was they didnt like the smell of the paint. Might be the same with the pool.

Throw some dirt in the bottom of it. If its new im sure the water tastes like plastic. it will season in and they will start using it. We have built several. Some just holes that held water, some with old truck tarps but covered with dirt. Some made of plastic 275 gal totes cut in half.
