Any anchor advice for a Catalina 22 (displacement around 2300 lbs). I
'm at Lake Travis in Austin Texas and we have a very rocky bottom
here. The boat came with two danforths but they are possibly the worst
choice for this type of bottom. I have been looking at an #11 Bruce
anchor.
Any comments would be very welcome.


I've used a Bruce anchor in rock & gravel & weed & combinations. The
only thing it's not good for is soft loose mud.

11# might be a bit on the light side, especially if you're anchoring
overnight. I'd go to the 16.5# with at least 20' of chain.
