The marker buoy is a small but very important item to have in your fishing arsenal. You use them to mark your spot, or as a land mark of a point you want to fish up to. Without having one it is almost impossible to get positioned where you need to be especially is the current is ripping or if it is very windy. You can make your own by simply tying some line to a empty bottle with a weight attached to the end. I recommend purchasing one if you can because they are made to adjust to the different depths that you may be fishing. If you choose to make your own when you drop on the spot you want the current will unravel the remaining line and you may not be as close to your honey hole as you think you are. The marker buoy comes in a variety of shapes and colors. You have to pick out the one that best fits your fishing style. I believe the best ones to choose from have a fin on the bottom. This will cause it to turn into the current thus making it easier for you to know how to position your boat and get closer to your fishing spot. Remember the closer you are to your the spot the more fish you will catch.
