Unsure what your calling cane. We have small river cane here, may not last as long but should still hold fish.Quote:

It works well,I dropped two last fall in 15 foot of water,right now the lake where I placed them is 7 feet,last Sunday I fished them both,came home with 33,I was pretty shocked.
Around here we call the river cane- bamboo. When I saw the first boo bucket picture on crappie.com it was like a light bulb was turned on. So simple. I finally dropped a couple and am making a couple more. Cane is everywhere in these south east missouri swamps.
i have plenty of cane out some has been out for 3 years
I also put out cane and what I have seen is that my shorter buckets stay in better shape than the taller ones. I figured that the taller cane gets slimed up and breakes over within a couple years while the shorter bears the weight better.
Will out last cedar for several yrs .:twocents
