LindyMarker Buoy for Fishing - Internal Ballast Weights and 60 ft of Rot-Proof Cord

Exactly what I needed

Works well for marking fish. Price seemed a little high

Thought the string was tied onto buoy and when we threw it in , lost everything. It doesn't come tied to it.

It is a great fishing marker but is a bit bigger than I envisioned.

Get a strong series of strikes fishing one day and want to be right on them in the morning? Using a fish finder and want to tag a few holes worth moving back and forth between? These give you those options at an affordable price and are easy to see across the lake or reservoir. Way worth it for any boaters out there, and also a marker for if you drop something and want to come back with resources to retrieve.

My home body of water is a flood control lowland reservoir that can have a lot of current. These hold great in substantial current.

It appears sturdy and exactly as advertised.

This is a good, easy to use marker in relatively still water. Where there is a light to fair amount of chop, like in Tampa Bay, combined with a little current movement, the design does not work too well. The buoy is weighted on the line, and also has loose weights in the barbell. The idea is that the weighted line will spin the barbell, peeling off enough line to get to the bottom. Then it will stop because of the resistance of the free moving weights in the barbells (which cause the buoy to "self-level" with the weights resting on the bottom). If a little wave action comes along, the buoy will likely still hold bottom, and instead just peel off a little more line. No problem in still water... the buoy will still be close to mark. But if there's some current, the line will peel off, pull taught in the direction of the current, peel off some more with the next wave, pull taught, etc etc. So it will effectively appear to drift with the current until all the line runes out. To make it more usable in these conditions, you'd have to let it spool off manually to the bottom, spool of a few more feet to account for the waves/swells, then clamp (rubber band) the remaining line to the buoy so it won't spool off any more.

Does what it is supposed to do.

Good value

ça fonctionne vraiment bien

EASY TO SEE!
