Has anyone used the Bill Dance Porcupines? How do they compare to homemade PVC or real wood?

now, if you like dropping 40 bucks on these things go for it.......
we did not know about this website when we bought these.....bc of this site we now use these......http://www.crappie.com/crappie/crapp...ole-build.html
total cost is about 2 bucks a structure, they do just as good as the bill dance aparatuses
one thing i like about the DIY version from this site is you dont have to figure out a way to weigh the structure down........the bill dance ones you do
hope this helps
Good luck!
I haven't been able to let go of the cash for the Bill Dance condo's so I have built my own and also changed a few things after getting ideas from this site.
We have some great engineers on this site and it's amazing the things they come up with. Check out the structure threads and make them for a fraction versus the Dance models. Bill doesn't really need the money.:rolleyes:
LOL
Has anyone ever caught any bass off these things? And if not any ideas.

We're catching bass off of these.
Have 6 of them right off our dock in 15-20 ft of water.
I cannot get picture to load.
Description:
55 gallon plastic drum (blue).
2 10 foot pvc drain pipes run through the upper part of the drum cross wise
1 inch holes all through the bottom and side - loaded with cinder blocks.
