[Tech Help] pick up lobster traps?

Is there any possibility of a command script that will pick up a lobster trap buoy? I know it's possible with Pinco's, but I really don't want to install that monster just for this one function. I'm happy with the new default UI for all else, and so is my poor insufficient pc.
I've tried using the scavenger agent, it will add it to the list, but it won't actually pick it up.

If you put your traps out in a long line you can pick them up moving slow forward on your ship just by double clicking with the mouse. I do it and I have horrible ping. You may have to stop and back up once in a while but that's still quite acceptable time wise for me. I start a timer at the first one and lay out a line of 100, reverse back to the start of the line, wait 8-10 minutes and head out start at the first one laid and pick them up. You can figure about 40% loss of traps on this but you can also expect 400-500 stones of crabs and lobsters on each 100 traps.
