I have a 12' Jon Boat and a 17' Bass Tracker and normally fish alone.
The main problem that I have been facing is rope storage and control. I'm talking about anchor ropes more than anything else.
Usually I keep one anchor in front and one in the back so I can anchor out to fish particular areas and not drift around. The problem I have is my ropes are in a constant tangle in the floor of the boats and it seems like I spend more time getting knots out of the ropes when I get ready to anchor out than I do fishing.
I know I could put anchormates on the front and rear of both boats but really don't have $400 to spend just to keep ropes from being in tangles.
What does everyone else do to keep their anchor ropes in order and untangled while riding around?
