If you want a buzzer that really floats - a suspender buzzer, just tie
in a few bits of C-D-C at the eye to make it float.


A small ball of booby foam works too. :-)


How do you attach it though?

Suggestion! Wrap the little polystyrene ball on a piece of condom. It
makes the bead waterproof. Much better than the old idea of nylon
stocking.


I would imagine that the scent of spermicidal lubricant might deter even
the hungriest trout. Of course, you could go for flavoured condoms.
However, you might get some funny looks when you ask the pharmacist for
minnow flavour. :-)
