ABSTRACT:
A device includes two enlarged end portions joined by a medial portion. It serves as a light-weight sturdy plastic container for motor oil or as buoyant marker for marking areas in a body of water where fish have been located. After the oil is used, fishing line is wrapped around the medial portion of the container and a weight is attached to the free end of the fishing line. The emptied container is thrown into the body of water, the line unravels and the weight sinks to the bottom. This allows the floating container to maintain its position. Alternatively, a fishing hook can be attached to the end of the line.
