Hi,
I recently purchased a Beuchat torpedo float, to which I attach my fish stringer and my speargun via a line.

I'm having issues with keeping the float upright, it tends to lean over, with the flag dipping in the water. I have experimented with the amount of air in it, and actually getting better results with less air, but to keep it upright it seems a bit too flat.

So I'm just wondering if anyone else has any tips on the best way to setup this type of float.

I've heard about using weight to keep it upright? If this is the case, what type of weights and where best to attach it/them

Thanks in advance for any replies
