Title: shanty ancor
Post by: tomb on January 13, 2014, 04:19:29 AM

Use a shanty ancor when there is even a remote possibility of high wind. You will be trapped in your shanty once it gets windy. We had major problems this past Saturday afternoon at the buoy line on Mosquito. Two of my buds got blown right out of their one mans. One got dragged about 50' with gear all over. The other ended up with his leg in a hole and shanty in the trees on the eastern shoreline.

man I know what you mean about that wind sat, I was on wingfoot and had 6 anchors holding my quickfish pop up down, there was one time I didn't anchor my shanty at mogadore and I chased it for 100 yds before I caught it  hahah.   I noticed now mogadore  now sells anchors now....definitely a must  ;D ;D ;D ;D
