Consequently the lake is filled with submerged trees and rocks. I'm wondering how useful a fish-finder would be to visualize below the surface in order to avoid submerged trees including dropping an anchor into a tree instead of mud. I'd rather not buy a new anchor and rode everytime I drop the hook in some quiet water. Has my imagination created a problem that doesn't exist and tree filled reservoirs aren't really anchor-thiefs? Thanks Bryan I used a mushroom anchor in that environment. Never lost one. -- John H. On the 'PocoLoco' out of Deale, MD That seems like a good idea. Thanks. No chain, either. Only some 1/4th inch rope. Usually there isn't enough current or wind, with trees all around, to move the boat much. And if you do anchor with a mushroom, use a small one - 20 lbs you'll be breaking your back trying to get it back up. :) -- Later, Tom I've only got a couple of undamaged disk's left, so thanks for the weight reminder! |
