Default Update anchor and Buoy

Got my anchor and buoy today got out there around 12:30 -1:00. Took me 20 minutes to pull it up it was wrapped in old lobster Pot lines The wire ties did pop it was free but it was wrapped up in lines that really pissed me off. But all is good fish for an hour and a half then the Southwest wind got real crappy fast pole my new anchor life is good did catch some tog. Thank you all 👍

Good to hear Bob. I saw the chop coming in on all of the web cams. I'm looking forward to some calm flat days. Seems it's been snotty out there for a long time with a few days of being good. I went out Sunday afternoon testing my new 4 blade props and the swells made me turn around and go back in. It wasn't super horrible but wasn't worth getting thrown around.

Glad you got it back Bob....Mine was pretty stuck at the Sandy Hook reef once...Anchor got caught on a hair ball of old anchor line, fishing line and a bunch of rigs and marine growth. Had to lean over the bow and cut everything off with a knife.... Must have taken me 20 minutes to cut through all the stuff.

Great to hear
same thing happened to me during the summer on the axel.

Anchor didnt feel stuck hard but wouldnt come up. eventually got it up and was wrapped on an old high flyer.

I actually ended up out there too. Ran up to redchurch...popped a few tog and got out and shot south in tight 3 'ers. Was a pond when we went out at 12

Tight lines
