Anchoring............ ;)
To a wreck.. then when your ready to leave you pull it real hard or use the boat. and the rebarb will bend , freeing your Anchor.
So they say....

Give a shout to Capt Joe at Pappa's Angels charters, he is making and selling wreck anchors, does a good job. ;D ;D and a good fair price $25.
Also a tip for the wreck anchor, attach your anchor rode to the down end (below the grapple) run the line up the anchor shaft and zip tie your rope to the top. When you go to unanchor the zip tie breaks causing the pull to be on the bottom of the anchor and it flips right out.... ;) ;D ;)

Great idea!
I can make one of these for anyone who wants one. Give me a call, 908-265-9394, stop by my shop in Sayreville and bring the materials. Take me 15 min or so and bring a 6 pack. Done deal. Always looking to help out.

Nice.. What did he do there at the last bend.. It's just bent?
-
what size rebar is the best size to go with?
-
Call Joe at PAPA Angels .. worth the $$$$
-
Skip down at the Chum Bucket sells them too. Good quality and a great shop.

Do use a chain with this anchor ?
-
Definitely use a chain. It will help keep the anchor scope down plus it will lessen the chance of chaffing your anchor line on the rocks and other debris that you will be anchoring in.
-
Read my post in tog fishing tips its a grapple and I explain how to use it properly
-
I don't use a chain for a couple reasons one if you really get it stuck and have to cut the line your not loosing the chain also. Two havint the rope tied direct gives you a little more feel/ stretch if you have to work it out of the snag, and three sometimes its hard to get it to hold when you have the chain on it runs into to bottom first sometimes causing the grapple to bounce and not grab bottom, that's what works for me.
-
that is a very cool idea!!!!
-
purtty cool boss

Hey Drummond, we started making those, and they work like a beauty! We were so happy, and we were probably going to start selling them. If you are still interested, feel free to email or message me and we can talk.
