I am working on a design for a device to retrieve a floating disc from water. I am thinking of getting half inch diameter pvc pipe and connectors to make a sort of C shape just barely bigger than the width of a disc. I plan on running some rope 75' or 100' all the way through the pipe so when I pull it in, it will distribute the force evenly to each side of the pipe. I plan on having 1 fishing weight that can be attached with a small climbing hook so the thing will fly through the air. I also plan on just breaking it down to 4 or 5 parts and wrapping it up in the rope to store it in my bag. I'm trying to stay with pvc pipe so it will be as light as possible. And using the connectors will allow me to break it down to a compact size. I will post a picture of what I am trying to do later. Does anyone have any suggestions or devices they have already created? Thanks
