What's the best anchor for inshore?
 
School me on which anchors I need for my boat. I'll be fishing vb and BL mostly. I plan on getting a mighty mite for sure, do I need another for softer bottoms? Is a chain required?

Jerry's carries these. Not sure who else in the area has them. I would think West Marine

What ya want for yours?

These claws bite pretty easy once dropped?

Claw grabs quick. Much better than mighty mite

Thanks for info fellas. Happy I didn't buy the mighty mite at academy... The claws half the price.

What ever anchor you get you want a chain. It may be a pain at times but its worth it in the long run. I would also get a stake out pole for the shallow stuff
