An Aluminum Super Fortress (not a copy or a knock off) has never failed to hold my 22ft boat, on any bottom in any current. As Armand stated you need at least 8 ft of chain, more would be better in deeper Tiger Shoal waters. I've had as little as a 2-1 scope and the anchor held. Don't buy those cheapy ones at discount stores they just don't work. Quality claw would be my 2nd choice.
