But if I am going to be at a spot a while and its shallow enough I use a cajun anchor, power pole, or both. If I am fishing a platform I use a rig hook. Next time I fish Caldwell I am am going to try driving my cajun anchor with a 2lb maul. If you decided to go with a Fortress, I have a brand new one that came with my boat taking up space. I am sure its a great anchor but I hate messing with it, make me a fair offer and I will deliver it.
Put one of these on your bow. makes anchoring much easier.
