Think I saw you mention something about wanting one of these?
You're welcome
Sounding Line

Have ya'll ever hear the joke about the old sailor who could taste
the bottom material stuck to the tallow on bottom of the sounding lead
and tell EXACTLY where in the ocean the ship was, with GPS-like accuracy?
Supposedly some pranksters brought along some chicken poo and dabbed
his lead into it when he wasn't looking...

He cast and retrieved it, stuck his toungue to it, and went white as a ghost -

Asking him what was the matter, he replied something like "Boys, Nantucket
has sunk, and we're right over ol' widow Smith's chicken yard "

Dern, now that's high tech right there, I don't care who you are.
