The 14 is my back up anchor but the main is around 17-18 lbs. They take a bit to make out of my garage since i dont have a machin shop but would make a batch if enough interest to make it worth my time. Kinda a pain to drag out the cutting and welding equipment for 1 or 2 anchors. I can get chase to help me knock em out one weekend when we got time. I cant post pictures on the forum and i dont even have a picture of one anyway. Price would depend on current metal prices to buy materials so your prob looking at $40-45 an anchor

I thought I was having a kidney stone come to find out it was diverticulutis. for 6 months I have a colostomy bag. and a 15 pound lifting limit the worse part is the no paycheck and I'm only 28 years old. the only thing I ask for would be prayers for a speedy recovery and no complications.

The 5in of colon that they cut out was the most painfull and the fact that the hole you see is where my bowls empty its like having to cleanout a gun shot wound with a water hose every night to keep the infection down. Some times you just have to man up and do it And to make things really bad the doc said to stay off the boat alone. .......

Just get a Digger Anchor and forget about the box-even though I think they work-Only once at PK was I not able to retrieve the Digger. EZ Marine (on line) sells the box anchors along with the best anchor retrieval system you have seen. Fishing 80 or 90 feet of water at Amistad it saves your back.

Priced the metal and can prob build them for $35 each. If we get enough interest we will make a batch. The digger anchors do not work well for me or the others i fish with in the area. In fact i think they suck but thats my opinion and for my style of fishing. Others mileage will vary just like everything else.
