    this set up is by far way cheaper than buying the bill dance fish attractor balls.

    total cost $2.00 plus kansas sales tax

    Looks fishie to me. Get it wet and they will come. There a lot of great ideas on this site and it's great that fisherman are willing to share ideas.
    Lots of luck and be sure to put enough of those to a spot to be able to find it.
    Soak em if you got em

    we already have a bed of pvc laid out. this is going to further that bed.

    there is a TON of great information on here. I love the money saving tips as well.

    i would much rather spend a beautiful day making these things then going to Cabelas and paying 40 bucks for one of these Porcupine Fish Attractor

    once again thanks to you guys!

    Go to construction sites and ask if you can go through their dumpster or trash pile.... you would be surprised what they throw away.....

    I use sticks from trim shops that make wood trim for houses....
    Most of them are hardwood.... and they will give you all you want because they have to pay someone to haul it off.....




    This is what I make from them..... I get the buckets FREE from a Dickie's BBQ Joint..... they empty 4 - 5 a day.....


    But I do have to buy the concrete.... but I get 2 stick condos from one sack of concrete......

    YOU CAN SAVE ON SACK CONCRETE BY BUYING BUSTED BAGS. THE BUILDING SUPPLY OUTLETS WILL USUALLY SELL CHEAP, WE PAY 1.00 PER 80 LB SACK.
    ALSO USE ROCKS OR DIRT TO ADD WEIGHT TO THE BUCKET AND ONLY USE ENOUGH ON TOP OF CONCRETE TO KEEP IT IN THE BUCKET.:D

    man those are awesome!

    I like the dishpan method bc it almost always lands perfectly on the bottom. No tipping over. Down here in the Ozarks we have steep drop offs everywhere.

    i am going to have to find a TRIM SHOP around here!!!
