Keeep in mind that full pool ony happens for a FEW days a year, even in good, wet years. I would set them at about 488.5 to minimize drift. APCO uses concrete slabs. They have forms that are about 15-18 inches square with a hole in the middle about two inches thick. They use multiple slabs on each bouy with the cable running through them. Using multiple slabs take away some, if not all, of the 'drift factor' and provides for stable bouys.
I don't know where your place is at, but also consider the amount of wave action on busy weekends. You don't want to tie them so short that they will be going under the waves. It will probably take a little adjusting to find that 'perfect' setting. You might also want to consider clips at 1-1.5 foot intervals to allow for easy adjsuting as the water comes up and down.
