Not always...but often. A buddy team will typically have a flag and that will be attached to a spool of line. Kind of a hassle to tow around. The smart folks will NEVER attach it to their BC or suit, but hold it in their hand.

The beauty of our local "lake" down here is that no flags are required -- because the only activity going on there is diving -- so no monofilament or hooks or nets or boats to deal with. Just happy fish and divers.
