I use a Danforth anchor (8lb, I believe), 12' of chain (2-6' sections attached by a shackle) on 3/8" rope. I carry 3 spools of 150' rope (for those trips over to the deep water Atlantic side). I keep the rope on extension cord wind-up spools that you can get from Home Depot with stainless steel connectors on the end. That way, if I need to add more rope, I break out the next spool from the mega hold and clamp it to the end of the line I just paid out, and let out some more.
My wife got me the anchor ball for a birthday gift and I'm looking forward to using it...looking REAL forward to it.
