If you got a camera and the water isnt to dirty you might wanna take that and try dragging a football head around the rod after locating it with the camera. Ive never done that myself but it shouldn't be to hard if you can actually see it.
Good luck. I have lost quite a few rigs over the years and only recovered 2.

lol.
Tell me where and when your going and you can take me and my aqua view
Use a flipping stick with braid and two snelled trebles with a 1 oz. egg sinker in front. Seems to work very well unless there are a ton of things to snagged on in the area or drag a 1 oz. football head with a treble hook trailer and slide one up the line before tying on your football head.
Hey Troy,
Lost my G.Loomis trap rod at banks during the Jamboree this year in about 8’ of water. The water was too dirty to see it and there was about 16” of weeds on the bottom. After about two and a half hours and 200 plus casts with a double treble and several drop shot weights. I decided to run to my truck to retrieve my camera. When I returned it still took me about an hour to locate the rod. The wind was blowing that day and my marker buoy was about ten feet off the rod. As soon as you find it, try and leave your camera right on top of it on the bottom. Then make sure you tighten up the camera line so it is straight down. I just dropped the double treble right next to the camera line and had it first time. You will need to dry out the reel and re-lube. Good Luck
