wire drag
A fine diagram of a wire-drag operation. The wire is towed between two tugboats, suspended by buoys at a predisposed depth. When the cable snags on an obstruction and draws into a V, the buoys point to its location.

Wire dragging is an operation used to locate and/or reduce the navigational hazard of a sunken wreck, rock, or other obstruction.
