Default Re: Anchor rope ?

I don't use chain on my wreck anchor just on my traditional fortress anchor. I would go minimum 10' of chain on a traditional. I have 2 anchors, 1 with 25' chain for rough conditions and 1 with 12' chain for normal conditions. Some people like to sleeve they're wreck anchor line with 10' of old garden hose to prevent chafing on sharp objects on the bottom. Good luck fishing
