anchors away
I use two mushroom anchors I bought up in British Columbia (they had my name on them, couldn?t resist). Tied to those are 30 foot lengths of parachute cord. I have tied loops in the cord at 10 foot intervals. I use two carabineers, one on either side of my pontoon boat and also on my WaterMaster raft. I place the anchors in the water at 45 degrees off the stern and hook the appropriate loops into the carabineers. These two anchors will withstand a very strong wind and wave action. When it really blows and I am out on the water I will set my anchors and toss out a chironomid or some other type of nymph and just work that fly until the wind stops.
