What's a good type of rope for 100' of fresh water anchor line, 15# anchor?

Steve


Half inch three strand nylon. One outfit has anchor rodes in at least
six colors, several lengths, several sizes. One size smaller should be
strong enough, but harder on the hands. Buy one with the eyesplice and
thimble included. Don't forget to buy a shackle.
