IIRC, to recover bodies in lakes they used to fire cannons on the surface.

You need a trashcan and some tannerite

Also don’t wait too long, it won’t be long for rust to set in.

40F is colder than I thought you would say. I might be tempted to dive for it once or twice in a pair of trunks since it's so shallow but that's probably not good advice, so don't.

Since it's so shallow and such a small body of water a pool skimmer as suggested is a good idea.

Is it a pond or a tank?

I'm pretty sure Texans call a pond a water tank, since they store water.

What about an otter trained specifically in underwater search and recovery?

That sucks.

I forgot I loosened my surefire QD and sent another round through it once.

Suppressor went about 50ft down range. Whoops

10-15 meters? Fuck no.

You think it was traveling faster than a rifle round, with less surface area (for friction) than a rifle round, with better hydrodynamics than a rifle round?

Fuck no it wasn't.

ok maybe im alittle off on my distance, but ive seen shit do some crazy stuff as far as where it ended up after going under. and if it skipped at all before breaking the surface that 10-15m is not out of reach.

Eh, maybe the carbon build up would rust but the can itself is probably a stainless derivative and corrosion resistant.

This was my thought as well. Like a water toy. Luckily it's in a narrow strip of the pond. Maybe 35ft across.

Go rent or buy a wet suit and get in there Nancy.

I hope it’s clay bottom but probably silty. If so, the magnetic portion in probably stuck in the silt.

Get a long ass pole and a bad ass magnet — one of those magnets that if you stuck it to tool cabinet it would be hard to remove. Attach that magnet to the pole jump in a Jon boat, kayak, whatever. Now do grids.

The can did not fall straight down. It’s probably 10’ from where it went under. Good luck.

True

I have scuba gear, but I lost my oalkys in 10 ft of water in destiny and found them with just my mask and fins.

A pond would make scuba gear a must.

The can is probably 10 to 15 out from where you think it is. Put on a mask and just jump in and grab it.

Well in OPs defense, according to the interwebs you can get into some serious trouble in 40F water in about 15 minutes with just your skin. Like I said, I would probably locate it with a detector and go for it once or twice, in and out and then warm up since its such a small body of water, at 35 feet across you can't be more than 15 or so feet from shore, but I would not give advice for someone else to do so.

Posted: 12/18/2017 12:24:21 PM EDT

[#27]

It’ll still be there when the water warms up, right?

Take another suppressor and duplicate your mistake. Have fins and mask ready to follow it down.

Better than a safe thread. This one has search otters, husband couldn’t find it, everything.

I can loan out my fish finding dogs, a little cross training would be good for them. I’m bound to have a boating accident one day too.

Clam or oyster rake.

The pond doesn't seem too big, nor deep. I would think a weed rake of some kind with a basket would pull it up in just a few hours.

40 degree water? Even with my 7mil semi-dry wetsuit, I'd be too chilled in 15 minutes. That's drysuit temperatures for a proper search.

Pay me to come down, and I'll give it my best.
