If the water is too deep to just wade out, there are these new inventions called boats that could be used!
I have an even more ancient invention. Rope.
I see your invention and raise you one even older! A stick.
But how would you attach the rope without being able to get to the floating plants, some kind of hook?
Madness!
We've been doing research on new methods/tools for placing items at a distance. One is more accurate, but doesn't give as much distance. It's called stick. The other can give greater distance, but accuracy can be a problem. It's called throwing.
You could just leave a line attached to the raft and a pole on shore.
Says the person that has likely never sat in a kanoe and tried to reach something heavy outside of it.
First, I have pulled someone who fell out of a canoe back in more than once. Also a loaded cooler once after someone tipped over.
Second, there are more boats than just canoes if you need the stability and the space to put harvest. A basic rowboat for example.
If you haven't learned how to counterbalance in a boat it could be an issue.
