One of the guys I used to fish with had a map that was marked all over with places where the clubs had put stuff over the years, would have loved to made a copy of it but never got the chance.

I am not sure if I still have information on the structure locations and fishing surveys.  Here is some information I found in two documents:

The Smith Mountain Reservoir project covered 9500 m2, used 7000 tires, and 400 evergreen trees. Like the Arkansas project, most of the
materials and labor were donated for this project, so the total cost in 1974 was only $4,998

I remember the tire structure consisted of a large truck tire filled with concrete and vertical rebar with holes drilled in the tires for passing through the rebar.
