Super User scaleface Posted July 5, 2020 Super User Posted July 5, 2020 I'm back to night fishing and next time I want to mark a couple of spots off-shore . I tried glow sticks taped to buoys once and that didnt work , the line kept tangling up in them before it reached bottom . Have any of you ever tried glow in the dark tape on a buoy ?, or have any other ideas ? Quote

Super User GreenPig Posted July 6, 2020 Super User Posted July 6, 2020 Gave my buoys away. Pull up the chart, troll into position and hit ⚓ on the Minn Kota 3/4 of a cast away from my waypoint. I had reflective tape on a couple buoys and even with a weak headlight you had no problem seeing them. Goodluck. Quote
SeaCrow Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 They make a glow in the dark paint that's clear during the day and glows at night. I've only seen it used indoors to make designs on children's bedroom ceiling. Not sure how well it would hold up outside. Probably find it at Wal-Mart or a craft store. Quote
Super User WRB Posted July 7, 2020 Super User Posted July 7, 2020 Bright green camping glow stick works. Tape it your bouy or make a simple bouy using a plastic drinking bottle with cord and weight. Tom Quote
Super User Catt Posted July 7, 2020 Super User Posted July 7, 2020 Use orange buoys & q-beam that way claim jumpers can't see em. Yes GPS & spot lock are awesome but not everyone has the budget or in my doesn't wanna waste the .money. Quote
Super User scaleface Posted July 7, 2020 Author Super User Posted July 7, 2020 I ordered some tape . Last night I wrapped some glow stick bracelets from the Dollar Tree around a buoy and that worked fair . Just didnt catch any fish there . 1 Quote
