Best Pontoon Anchor

thinkxingu · 07-25-2016, 12:30 PM

OK, last year I posted about having issues with a slip ring Danforth and, after adding chain and zip-tying the ring, it still stinks. After having some nice people dig it in for me at West Alton yesterday, I decided to play with it a bit and it just doesn't bite--typically, it just rolled over. I just want a reliable bite!

That being said, I'm looking at three: Mantus, slide anchor, and Fortress (supposedly, the Fortress is a reliable Danforth-style). Thoughts for a 20' pontoon mostly anchored out at sandbars and shallower sections of Winni?!
