Default anchor question...>>>

Steve.... you recommend this type (the river anchor) over the grapneling
hook or the "Navy" style?

Question... for a small jon boat on a reservoir (I'm in Maryland, and

I
fish on Liberty Reservoir, for those of you familiar with this area),

what
type of anchor would be best? I presently have a small "mushroom"

anchor
(8
lbs, I think) but it doesn't hold the boat in place -- I tend to drift.

Any
suggestions? I think the bottom is mostly mud but I'm not exactly sure.


Marty,

If you're having a problem with the mushroom anchor, try something like a
River Anchor. A 12 or 15 pound model with 3 feet of chain will hold your
boat very well.

A model like this will suffice.
