One of my lobster nets drifted off the pinnacle, and I was able to find it nearly 1/2 mile away.The negatives: About 4 out of 10 leaked. I think it is a gasket issue, because they are of very poor quality. Since I was nearing the end of the return window, I didn't have the time to figure out why some leaked and some didn't. All of them were screwed on the same manner -- tight, but not so tight that it would be difficult to get them off. Also, as others mentioned, unless something is weighting down the buoy, they don't float properly. If you're using floating poly line, you may have some issues. You can solve it by putting a weight to pull the line down. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ These are great. I see all the other boats using the ... *by B***Y on December 5, 2016* These are great. I see all the other boats using the glow sticks, which you can barely see. Mine are SUPER easy to see, even from far away. With the glow sticks, I was always having trouble finding my traps. With these, so easy. First I tried 2 of these and used glow sticks for my other 4 traps. Once I tried that, I knew I wanted 4 more. Now I only use these. Expensive! But worth the investment.One caveat: They do NOT stand up well enough by themselves. That's why I give them 4 stars. The manufacturer should weight the bottoms more. To fix this, I tied a 1 ounce fishing weight with fishing line to the bottom of each one. Now it works great. ### ⭐ Be Ready For Disappointment After They Fail *by A***D on March 4, 2018* Read all the reviews about them getting water inside so made sure I had them as watertight as possible and all six that I purchased failed after one night of about three hours use in salt water. Doesn't appear you can buy just a new strobe assembly, so I took the guts out and two glow sticks will fit inside. As such, I now have some very expensive glow stick floats for my lobsters hoops.And for what is worth, the flashing light does draw the attention of seals at night, which is not a good thing. I have never had so many swimming a around my floats. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/85523180-instapark-ihb888-led-flashing-floating-crab-lobster-buoy-with-built](https://www.desertcart.us/products/85523180-instapark-ihb888-led-flashing-floating-crab-lobster-buoy-with-built) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
