Mine site flag poles would do the trick.  You just mount them by having an air fitting in the bull bar and clip it in.
The issue with those is they are usually not tall enough.
but now that other places want them taller, it wont take long for mines to double their height requirement

Conduit pipe with timber dowl inside. If it is a decent fit inside and the dowl snaps it will still hold the conduit straight.

Has anyone bought one of these off fleabay? Interested to know if the quality is there for the $$'s.  I've looked at the other suggestions on this thread, and I have enough old fishing rods to make my own, but like the clean way this clips on using snap on air fittings and joins in the middle using the screw together ferule. Makes it easy to store in the bottom of the ute tub out of the way til needed.

It looks the same as the Black Widow flag I bought a couple of years ago.  It packs down small enough to be stored in the tube with the fishing rods.  Works fine.

Hay Scarps I have a 3 piece sand flag as described but CAMS approved (has reflective X). Works well.

I still think this one has a stronger looking pole and kit
