Quick take
High-visibility foam floats for marking crab pots, trot lines, and anchor positions.
This is a two-pack of bullet-shaped marker floats made from closed-cell EVA foam, each about 5 inches across and 11 inches long. A center hole just over an inch wide takes the line, so the floats mark crab, shrimp or crawfish traps and also work as anchor markers or kayak outrigger stabilizers. A bright color makes them easy to spot from the water.
Best for
- Crab and shrimp trap lines
- Kayak stabilization and outrigger use
- Boat moorage and anchor marking
Skip if
- You fish in calm protected water only
- You need floats smaller than 5 inches
Strengths
- Bright yellow color is highly visible in water and fog
- EVA foam is durable and will not water-log
- Bullet shape allows rope to slide through center hole
Trade-offs
- Larger sizes take up storage space on deck
- Design is specialty use for pot lines and moorage
- Not suitable for supporting rod tips or lures
