Just passing along some info I ran across on some testing done with different types of anchors. Keep in mind, these tests were performed for use in general inshore fishing requirements and bottom types.
Some of this may apply and work well for use in some fresh water lakes, and some may not. But it does give some info to think about when looking for your next anchor.
