    Default Home made buoy / markers


    I had the local bait shop order me some and for some reason they never could get them in so I wound up making some and through my experience thought I might share the idea. I had a couple failed attempts.

    Take a 3"-4" pc of 1 1/4" pvc, put 1 1/4" tees on each end and use spray foam and fill them up, no glue required. I used trot line string and a battery terminal end for wgt. They work perfect and will stay where you put them out and not flip and stretch out.

    I know a guy that cuts his "H" style bouys from Cedar. Seen them made from swim noodles but never considered PVC. Thanks.
