Recovering Anchors, A SCUBA Diving Adventure

[@ZCOOKZ]

Nice! Nothing funner than recovering underwater items.

[@ZCOOKZ]

Ive never recovered anything that needed a lift bag though lol

[@mokpot]

I agree, finding and recovering things is great fun. Needing a lift bag or two, or ever more... make it an adventure.

[@wandlbaker]

Mark, I see that you are ANCHORED in the official video hall of fame. LOL

[@mokpot]

Oh my... as always Mr. Bill, I look forward to hearing from you : )

[@emrahgoksoy1875]

"Worthless blade anchor" says "Robocurran Havasu" everytime when they see one for the first anchor. And "wooohoooo! Box Anchor!!!" for the second one. Thanks for good adventure. :-)

[@mokpot]

Worthless? Well the chain had value... Thanks for tuning in!

[@Roman_Usmanov]

Просто открыв рот смотрел на то, как работает специалист под водой. Отличный улов.

[@mokpot]

Спасибо, что нашли время, чтобы прокомментировать, я ценю ваше участие!

[@macgyver2417]

Good recovery video. Golf ball. Thumbs up.

[@mokpot]

Thank you!

[@VoklstWestie]

You needed to recover that giant wheel thing the anchor was hooked on. Lotsa weight for the recycle center $cha ching!

[@mokpot]

Perhaps another day..

[@shadesofidaho]

Glad you were able to retrieve the anchors. Sorry about the air bag leak but of course you were prepared with another. Mixed reviews on the box anchor. I have not seen one before. Thank for the video. Be safe.

[@mokpot]

Hi Chris, good to hear from you, that was the first box anchor I have ever seen, then a couple days later another youtuber posted a video recovering one. The are pricey, perhaps I will finally sell something...

[@shadesofidaho]

@@mokpot That would be great to re-coop some diving money either for gear or air. Hoping you get a high price for it.

[@AmphibiousDetecting]

I'm already turning green with envy now that dive season is over for me up here in new york. Great finds! That zipper chain thing.... I might of been wearing something similar back in the day with blue monday blasting on the radio back in high school haha!

[@mokpot]

Another viewer said it is part of a woman's shoe. The treasure season is over here, but the dive season continues year round. I have a backlog of videos to edit so I will be posting for several more months.

[@AmphibiousDetecting]

@@mokpot that sounds about right for a shoe haha! Flashback over.

[@ЛеонидХ-ч5д]

Hello. Always cool!

[@mokpot]

Спасибо, рад вас слышать!

[@ЛеонидХ-ч5д]

@@mokpot very good)))

[@ozarkmountaineer3581]

Awesome work! This one is more of a salvage than a treasure hunt. I could definitely watch more fresh water salvage videos.

[@mokpot]

Thanks OM, I am good with calling it salvage. Sounds manly.

[@Smithsgold]

Nice Finds !!!!!!

[@mokpot]

It was a good dive!

[@SamWolfandCo.fossickandfind]

Hi Again Mark👍 The "slide", is also called a box anchor and as I mentioned in a previous comment US their worth around $250 used and the other a"danforth" as I know them is around $150-$200 new, and that's Enough to buy some good lift bags and some gloves and the odd accessories for diving. There's a couple of guys who dive the east coast rivers who go ape over the Slide anchors as the river they dive has a swift current, Colorado River I think, can't think of the KZbinrs at the moment, well mate great to see you out and about, Stay safe and happy hunting Cheers👍🇦🇺✌👍🇺🇸👍

[@mokpot]

Hey Tim, good to hear from you, thanks for the information on the anchors!

[@breakingh2o311]

Good job Mokpot! I got a good belly laugh at the holy lift bag. Didn't you say that you have 22 anchors and no boat? Make that 24. Lol

[@mokpot]

Hey Gordon, just you wait, one day you will have collections too.

[@anthonyabretski5956]

Great video as always that is a strange anchor There did not seem like there was a lot of trash Always like your videos be safe, 🤙

[@mokpot]

Thanks Anthony, I appreciate you taking time to say hello

[@PinkPowerAllyTreasureHunter]

Awesome adventure!!! Thanks for taking us along. Harry Potters magical (not so magical) lift bag failure!! Amazing anchors!! 🥃

[@mokpot]

Hey PPA, aka WWL, aka Queen of Canadian Recovery, I hope the cooling weather has not discouraged you from keeping you dive gear damp.

[@PinkPowerAllyTreasureHunter]

mokpot hope to be in the water this weekend Mister MOK 🤩

[@Nova350]

Great adventure looked like alot of fun and a good way to spend a day

[@mokpot]

It was a lot of fun, it is an adventure when I set out to do a specific job underwater.

[@pacediver2594]

Great dive and finds,too bad about the lift bag.

[@mokpot]

Nothing is forever, gives me a reason to shop for new dive gear!

[@pacediver2594]

That’s the attitude,lol

[@VoklstWestie]

A mans bracelet! Mr T probably.

[@mokpot]

Heck of a large man...

[@RiverBound]

It's good to find someone very anchored in their ways. See wha tI did there? Thanks for the adventure.

[@mokpot]

Oh I saw it... Always good to see a comment from you Mi Amigo.

[@joshortiz1576]

Awesome video! It's so cool to see areas I know on here lol. I hope to be able to see you out there one day and be able to say hi! Keep up the awesome videos!!

[@mokpot]

Hey Josh, yes, if you see me please say hello!

[@joshortiz1576]

@@mokpot I most definitely will. Also not sure if you know bit you can get a yearly parking pass for alot of the parks that are along the river.

[@metaldiver]

Nice job👍

[@mokpot]

Thank you! Keep your videos coming.

[@MericaAdventures]

Awesome ! Never seen a slide anchor thanks for cleaning up our American river 👍🇺🇸🍀😎

[@mokpot]

It was the first I had seen also. Trash to treasure!

[@diannesandenfebles2774]

Great demonstration of retrieval!

[@mokpot]

THank you Dianne!

[@mnlpsvsapo]

Great recycling mission ! Take out from the water anchors that can be used agian ! Great !...

[@mokpot]

Yep, it is all trash and garbage until it is removed and used again.

[@patg6705]

sorry about your bag, that sucked!! Awesome recovery - thanks for sharing

[@exploringwithamission]

Nice work mate 👍

Looks like a nice day to cruse around under water. Keep the videos coming. Love them!!!

[@mokpot]

Thanks Eddie, it is alway good to hear from you.

[@andie2809]

That was FUN! I keep wanting to ask if you were a teams guy but then realized you can't say if you were...so I guess I should just say...HI! Nice dive!😁😁😂

[@mokpot]

Well, I can say no I was not. I can say Hi Andie, it is always so good to see a comment from my favorite pilot.

[@andie2809]

[@ClaytonCountyHistoryHound]

Awesome to see the return and recovery. Those are some very nice anchors. To bad the yellow bag went bad. What brand is the orange one. You just did an excellent review without realizing it lol. Thanks for taking us along, GL, HH and take care.

[@mokpot]

Didn't realize it? Took me 14 takes to get it right... kidding, Thank you, one take, good or not so good, done. I believe the orange one is a no name generic liftbag. I have had it for at least 10 years, i wish I had bought more and different sizes too.

[@davidpook7306]

That Genesis is a workhorse! Keep up the videos, Thanks always enjoy!

[@mokpot]

Will do

[@cnhcola]

That is a box anchor works great and costs a lot good find.

[@mokpot]

I may sell it, I have a pile of anchors and no boat.

[@Kim-dq7ff]

Looks like top of shoe ?? Check out “Sailing La Vagabonde “ and “Sailing SV Delos” they would love those ....no UPS where they go. Good dive !!

[@mokpot]

Hi Kim, I have watched both of those channels, amazing adventures.

[@stanleydaniels100]

Great search and recovery vid. Thanx for posting mokpot!

[@mokpot]

Sure thing Daniel, thanks for tuning in!

[@dianabennett5820]

Another cool dive. Thank you. Would you mention what the ?case? was that you didn't recover. Looked a bit like a tool of some sort. Thanks as always for the videos

[@jimmybritt9537]

At 1:46 , wish you had shown more 😉👍👍🇺🇸

[@mokpot]

Hi Jimmy, noted for future videos...

[@iamrichrocker]

Markk.burned a few calories in that dive..gave us a good idea how hard diving can be, as well as fun..stay safe..thanks for the video..

Always! Thanks for wwatching, always good to hear from you.

[@jwrappuhn71]

Good vid Sir.

[@mokpot]

Thank you Sir.

[@Jane_Dow]

How far ahead of you can you see in that kind of water ??

[@mokpot]

About 10 feet clearly in most spots, can see shapes another 5 to 10 feet past that.

[@Biffle-re3db]

You should change your name to "Anchors away with Mokpot"...lol. I always enjoy your videos, thank you!

[@mokpot]

Awesome, I am glad you like the vids...

[@TomTom-tt1pl]

I think they make the box anchor collapsible to fit down through hatches

[@aldoroelofs8507]

Nice finds Maybe a piece of a larp suite like lord of the swim....eehh ring Laters mok

[@kennyrogers3919]

The one that says slide anchor is called a box anchor. I have one a little bigger, mines stainless and cost me $600 !!!

[@mokpot]

Wow ! Why so much? I might nave to sell that one! Thanks.

[@kennyrogers3919]

mokpot don’t know but they are expensive! 😳 Probably because they work really good! That’s probably why that one was still on the bottom😂😂 I’ve almost lost mine but I dove down and got it

[@BobSmith-st1wq]

I could have sworn I've seen that first anchor in someone else's video. they set it up there and said it wasn't worth taking it, I remember the bent arm.

[@mokpot]

These two anchors were in a video I posted kzbin.info/www/bejne/imepd4uLrttlmZI I left them because I was not prepare to haul them out then, so I went back specifically prepared...

[@BobSmith-st1wq]

@@mokpot OK, See I remember your videos...lol

[@wingrovedl]

"Quad Bag" is falling all over themselves trying to find you for your free complementary bag about now. lol lol GL&HH

[@mokpot]

I wish that were the case, they are mostly a commercial diver's supply company, so I doubt they are worried about little ol' me. Actually I am dissatisfied with the product, it worked very well... until it didn't.

[@ggm2..11]

Wow!

you liked? Great!

I just biked onto the peninsula and the was a Nutria that swam by, I contacted the Fish and Game, there are a invasive species and burrows into levees!!!

I know, I actually saw one before dawn not far from the Marina in Richmond CA.

@@mokpot You should report them to DFG at CalTip!

[@olivap54]

That yellow lift bag needs some repair.

[@mokpot]

You may be right...

[@barthanes1]

It's the back part of a woman's shoe. The oversized bling goes around the ankle, and the leather was the heel. The sole is missing.

[@mokpot]

Thanks Ross, I was clueless!

[@davidpook7306]

That's the first (official dive) for some time now!

[@mokpot]

David, I know, slim pickin’s for official dives this year. It was suggested by a viewer to make a fish sighting the “ official “ stamp.

[@jimmybritt9537]

Someone really set that anchor up right with the chain and all . If they had used a trip line , wouldn't have lost it

[@mokpot]

Hey Jimmy… somehow it was double looped around the tree, it was not coming free from the surface.

[@jimmybritt9537]

@@mokpot double looped , wow cant figure that one out . Unless they lifted the tree and when it returned to the bottom the line was on the other side making a complete loop . I dove with guy whose BC leaked like you're lift bag 🤣👍👍🇺🇸

[@saintsinner7565]

All I wanna see are fish and crawdads😀

[@mokpot]

That's all? I am editing a video now and in an upcoming video posting, I will be sure to have a full screen of fish for you. Not the whole video but, it will be there. Not an easy task to accomplish in a river, but I will do it.
