    Default Missing Anchor


    Left one off Lespedeza point this morning with about 50ft of white nylon anchor line attached. Seems it was never attached to the drum on my winch and I had never thought to pull it all off and check. line should float so maybe someone will find it before it gets in a prop.

    If the rope floats...why didn't you retrieve it when it came loose?

    Way to rough, went and looked for a bit then figured you'd find it tomorrow. Plus didn't know it was missing right away.

    Jig I think it is some kind of Polly braided rope. I just figured it might be visible after it calms down. And someone slow trolling might see it. Just hoping no one gets tangled in it.
