Do not use a rope. Spot lock where I want it then pitch it over the side. Once settled troll back over it and mark a waypoint on its location.

you can zip tie a gallon jug to the top of most stuff and it with hold it upright in many cases . but keep in mind sometimes brush on its side is more naturally occurring and it often holds fish quite well .

The lake I fish is an irrigation impoundment. There is no brush in the lake and very little structure, mostly rock/gravel. EBID will not let anyone put in brush. Thus, our crappie are roamers. It is very difficult to fish, especially as EBID Draws the water down during the growing season.

Back in early '90's I lived on a 27 acre pond (private) I was the only one that lived on pond, had 14' & 10' aluminum boats in Back yard on waterTM's an batteries on porch. There were 10 permits sold each yr. Same people every yr. I started sinking x-mas trees, cause there was lots of crappie. I would lower buckets with trees with 25 tests fishing line , then cut line with 1 ft. of slack, clip on round cheap plastic bobbers to mark. Because I'd bring friends and kid's fishing, if I wasn't home I'd tell'em cast to floating bobbers. Went on vacation 2 weeks, came home all bobbers were missing , so I go out and find them about 20 spots with 2 trees, set hook in them with new bobbers. That weekend ol-timer bout 75 , that had been fishing that pond before I was born, tells me, hey someone keeps marking my hot spots with bobbers ! Ha Ha Ha
