I made one about tweenty pounds haven't used it yet but if you want one pm me I can make it any size or weight. I'm making them to practice so I'm not looking for a big profite.

That is the seasoned guy in us Tom, I hate pulling anchors all day in deep water.

I have box anchors and danforths, the danforths at times are harder to get to bite but when they do you arent pulling them loose at an angle. They weigh a lot less also.

I was the guy that got blown off Saturday that Michael was talking about, got the box anchor locked down in 30' of water with 90' of rope out because it was extra windy. Got 4 rods out and there goes the box anchor, I pulled up tight against the danforth with the trolling motor to keep from having a mess and pulled all 90' of rope back to the boat dragging the box anchor the whole time, it never bit again. I didn't like box anchors that day at all LMAO.

I have two 16lb danforths, 99% of the time ONE holds my 24'er in ANY wind. In last years Cabelas tourny at Twok I coulden't bite in a sandy bottom. But, I got over 300 yards into a normal bottom and the anchor held the boat fine in 4 foot waves.

I still didn't catch a fish!!!!!

What are the dimensions?

That anchor will hold, is that 3" X 1/4 Flat Bar?
Now all you need is about an 18" piece of chain on the front of it,

How much are you selling them for?
