The present invention relates to a fishing location marking device or marking device otherwise known as a swim marker 10. The present invention provides a swim marker 10 which is simple, compact, robust and does not rely on a fixed length of anchor line and varies the length of the anchor line depending upon the depth of the water. The swim marker 10 comprises a floating body 12 and anchor line retaining means 17 wherein an anchor line is arranged, in use, to extend from the floating body 12 to a submerged weighted component in order to retain the floating body 12 in a marking position on a surface of a body of water relative to the weighted component. The floating body 12 comprises a first arm 20, a second arm 21, a third arm 22 and a fourth arm 23. The floating body 12 also comprises a body portion 16 providing an anchor line spooling portion comprising a circumferential spooling surface on a central portion of the floating body 12. The first arm 20, the second arm 21, the third arm 22 and the fourth arm 23 extend radially outwardly from the central portion 16 and form a substantially X-shaped body. The anchor line retaining means 17 fixes a length of anchor line extending between the anchor line retaining means 17 and the weighted component, and wherein the circumferential spooling surface is fixed and unmovable relative to the arms 20, 21, 22, 23.
