This rig was specifically for alligators but the detachable float is what you'll need. This is the Muzzy slotted Aims retriever system. Others accomplish the same thing with a foam filled Gatorade bottle.
Oops you can see the Aims retriever on the bow my son is holding in the background.
Bear Polar is what I use.
Good luck.

are they good for the garden or the table?
what is a skate?
WWButcher,
They actually don't taste too bad,
It has a hint of a crab taste.
My wife even likes them.
GatorR, a skate is another version
of a stingray. They are shaped a little
different, and do not have the poisonous stinger.
thanks whitetail
and actually in alot of restaurants when you think your getting scallops....its ray.
