Quick take
A bright yellow foam float designed to mark shrimp trap locations and keep trap lines afloat.
This is a bright yellow, closed-cell foam float about 11 inches long and 5 inches across, sold as a pair. It marks the spot of a shrimp pot so you can spot it from the boat. The same shape also works as a mooring buoy or a trotline marker.
