Took me a couple of times to get it down. But after a little practice it's quick and easy. When you get ready to pick up, give slack to the first anchor and pull yourself over the second one, retrieve it and pull yourself over the first one and retrieve it. Learned the T Method from Tom.

Most of the time, I just pull the anchors it doesn't take much to break them loose because you are pulling against the other one, and if you have help you can pull both at the same time!
But my anchors are like Tom's, only about 17 lbs each!

I don't do that anymore after hanging one up out at Hubbard. Cost me $50.00. I get directly on top of them now.

Ok, I confess, I was hoping that nobody would ever bring that up, I did buy 20 slinkey weights, not that I am planning on becomming a full-time aimless drifter, but the last 2 tournaments I have been in, a last minute dicision to go drift fish was good enough to put me in 3rd place in both of them, I will admit that I was in a desperate situation and it payed off, I still hate drifting, but it works, and it is a good way to locate and catch some fish when other methods are not working too good. Thanks for Ratting me out Tom!
