I love to go out in the afternoon fishing on my Escape. It's usually windy and I'm not trilled by always being carried by the current.
I enjoy fishing from one place (at times) and being able to cast 180 degrees. I will not always take my trolling motor with me and there are times I would like to anchor. I'm thinking about buying a couple of 2.5 # round barbell weights, attaching them to a chain about 8 ft. long and then a rope. I could get a kayak anchor but my experience has been that they don't hold to well. I could also use a stretch line and tie up to a buoy.
Any one care to jump in?
Thanks!
