FinsandFeathers Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I was fishing last fall and one of the boats in the area I was in had a buoy that seemed to stand up after it hit bottom. I always have the basic Lindy ones around and I also use way points on my graph but i thought the stand up style might be interesting. Because of my computer literacy failure I have been unable to find this type, any one have some suggestions or info on this stand up style?

fiskyknut Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Blue fox company made a stand up type at one time.Paint a Teal decoy to look like a Seagull or Tern and you have yourself a rather stealthy marker buoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Wiggum Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Google "Berkley Premium Marker Buoy" I think that might be what you're talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurnUpTheFishing Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 My stealth buoy is a small, 3", clear plastic jar. Even on calm days it can be hard to see, especially if you dont know its general vicinity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigginjim Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 paint your marks flat black, harder for others to see from a distance. Another idea is using a bobber, I have rigged up line with loops at 5ft intervals, looks like a floating line. Store line on old baitcasting reel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motley man Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I hate it when I go back to bouy after drifting or trolling and someone else picks it up first. Lost a few this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
