I need a stakeout pole for my 'yak. I thought about using a broom handle but the wood will make it hard to push into the bottom of the lake due to it's buoyancy. And it wouldn't be quite long enough.
The stakeout pole needs to have a spike on the bottom end and some way to tie an anchor line to the top (ish).
Ideas? Keep in mind I not only don't have access to a welder but a welder would fuck up my pacemaker and I'd rather that last bit didn't happen.
