Now I am a big fellow....and when I owned several bass boats I found out the heavier boat needed a bigger anchor. I can't really do anymore chain...no room in the handle opening for anything bigger....and I have modified the handle. But I don't really want to go to a fluke anchor....too much chance of getting it hung up and when you cut the line there goes the 30 plus bucks for the 26 foot Flexi dog leash. So I guess I live with a slow drift.
