Hi All,
After getting home from the Illinios Spoonplugger Seminar I was all set to make my own markers. I figured that 2 to 3 dollars each to make them myself was a good price.

I was at Fleet Farm today and they were selling the plastic barbel type for less than $5 a pair. I don't think I can make them for less than that.
So I bought 5 sets.

For store location go to www.fleetfarm.com
Unfortunately they do not have an online catalog.

Empty Tide detergent bottles are good, and the price is right. Easy to see up sun in a chop. I find the small markers are too easy to lose in the glare in chop. 1lb salt water sinkers holds 'em down. Use 1/4 in. stuff for the line. It's easier to manage than string.
