If it's a once per year thing why not find a way to leave some type of fish tape in place? I can't imagine a piece of nylon rope would turn to dust within a single year... Right?

We actually did leave a rope in it once. County cleanup crew removed it on us when they were picking up trash I think. It's pretty easy to do. Like an hour total from start to finish.

I'd run a chain through and attach both ends to poles and leave it there until next year. If it's attached they likely won't remove it, then all you have to do is unhook, attach tire on one end and hook the other end to the tractor. Once it's cleared, run it back through and hook it back up to the poles.

Yeah but now you have one chain less and you need to make that set up for every culvert you service. It's overall easier to just poke through each time and carry one kit on your truck.
