Objectives
Attach a Mist-Hopper Buoy to 8 Full Crab Pots on the Shelf of Mazu.
- Full Crab Pots Sent to Surface x8
[Mist-Hopper Emergency Buoy] (provided)
Description
I just got word that a string of pots we dropped this morning hit it BIG. We're on the crab!
Problem is, the rips are getting stronger and we lost track of some of the pots. They're just sitting out there, filled with spiky blue GOLD!
I need you back out there. Hook one of these buoys up to any of the full traps you find and send it to the surface for us.

You smell that, green?

Smells like money!

Nice work out there!
Notes
Pick up [30-35] Walking Dog, [30-35] Old Age and Treachery, and [30-35] Shark Week before heading out.
Out in the open water, summon Dog using 
[Dog's Whistle]. Dog immediately turns around and offers [30-35] Dog Food, so accept it.
The Silt Vents are on the northeast end of the Shelf of Mazu, almost due west from Soggy's Gamble.
- Dog swims excitedly through the vents of warm water.
The Wreck of the Mist-Hopper is just southwest of the silt vents.
- Dog rubs against the prow of the Mist-Hopper and whimpers.
On deck, forward, is Soggy's Footlocker. Loot the 
[Sealed Charter Tube] out of it.
Finally, southwest, just offshore of Zan'vess, is the whale corpse.
- Dog looks around cautiously before leaving his mark on the whale corpse.
Crab pots are all over the seafloor, and merely interacting with them is enough to get them up to the surface. Kill Longfin Threshers, loot their Thresher Jaws, and extract 
[Thresher Teeth] from them, 22-30 at a time. Carefully. Last but not least, kill Rockshell Snapclaws so Dog can eat them.
