Well I have put some out and plan on putting more out next week. My thought is you don't own it but some people are looking for a free ride and will take more then their share every chance they get and plus let the country side know about these hotspots, which will deplete the bigger crappie quicker. Some people will respect what you have done and fish it only to catch a mess to eat. As for them high dollar sonars, not many crappie fishermen have them and most don't have any electronics at all and if you find the titanic let us know! Just teasing. As for marking them I always take my floats home.
