Bales of maryjane are called Square Grouper here in the Sunshine State. There is a movie by that name on Netflicks that is pretty good about the old days in South Florida.

I have a buddy that worked on a fishing boat in FL. It wasn't like they came across floating bales every day but it was fairly common. Radio the coast card as to the location (although there might be a slight delay if the thing wasn't waterlogged).

Tow it 26 miles out to sea. (your fishing line 'accidentally' snagged it, right?)
Enjoy.
