Only because I do not have one. Just found my first anchor and had to leave it on the bottom. Now a lift bag is on the list of things to get and I will start carrying it.

My B/C works kinda like a lift bag...heh
I found a HEAVY weightbelt a few weeks ago, and was able to use the excess lifting capacity of my BC to get neutral with the extra weight....My arms were tired at the shore from having carried it, but I was neutral the entire time I was swimming to shore....
(Yes, I'm aware that I should probably have a smaller wing on my transpac...)

I have a largeish dsmb attached to a reel with 80m of line on it, a small one with a drop weight and 18m of string in it for when the big one goes tits up for whatever reason, and a big yellow lifting bag, for treasure lol
