We've all been there and tossed a great disc into the water (if you have any water on your local course). Yesterday I had a bad throw allowing the wind to get under my favorite disc taking straight over to the middle of the large pond at a local course. I tried a golden retriever without success. I even left to get the waders to walk in almost ending up stuck out there myself in knee deep muck on the bottom of that nasty pond. While out fishing for my disc three more guys tossed in discs and all had no luck recovering as you can't see them if they are not in the first 3 feet from the shore.
I've seen the lake rake threads on here as well as the basket types that have been made and I'm curious to hear how the rest of you recover discs in water you can't or don't want to get into. Do large lake rakes actually have much success getting lost discs you can't see? Besides lake rakes has anyone had success with anything else recovering discs in murky water?
Hopefully, someone has some good ideas because it would be awesome to get my disc back and be able to recover the other guys discs for them. Any ideas are welcome as well as DIY projects that we can all use since most of those lake rake threads are long dead and some of the pictures are gone.
Thanks!
