Usually in low vis or difficult navigation areas when we are diving from a boat, we have a way on getting back to the anchor line and a backup plan.

We generally attach a line to the wreck or some structure near the anchor line. We don't attach to the anchor or it's line, because if it ever pulled free we could be pulled into shallow water, become tangled or other danger.

Backup plan is a Jersey Line, which is basically a spool of line you can attach to the wreck or structure and use to get to the surface or deco. depth. It keeps you from drifting away as you would without a line.
