What, no one got a sounder?

Big lake to sound.
I thought I'd found a boat at Wivenhoe once. There was a tinnie lost trying to help a catamaran get upright. A few weeks later I was trolling in water 105' deep and got snagged on a bit of rope. When I pulled on it, it moved. I spent about 20 minutes pulling that rope up all the time thinking "salvage rights!"
Have you ever lifted three Besser Bricks 105 feet on a wet piece of rope?
