Yellow poly rope, Single large float with a smaller float.
They are probably gone, but thought I would just give it a try. Crabbing between 20 and 22. Appreciate your time.

We crabbed Hammond on Saturday and Sunday. I set my Danielson pots around # 22 at the end of the outgoing. The tide should have been slowing, but it appeared to be picking up. We almost lost one pot that was placed upriver a couple hundred yards just inside Buoy 22. About a half hour later we attemped to locate it and were lucky to find it a quarter of a mile downriver from that buoy. The light was just right or we would not have gotten this pot back.
There were about 6 tp 8 boats in a one mile area between #22 and #20.
When we were heading in we saw one pot by itself, I believe with a white float???? This float was slightly upriver from #22 all by its lonesome. We almost picked it up and turned it in but elected not to.
Good luck in finding your pots
