Just tie on your bait container with piece of cord 3-5 ft up your chain from your anchor. Make the cord about 2-3 ft longer than where you tied it on the chain. When you bring up your anchor the cord will slide right though the rings and be hanging right beside your anchor. You can put a small float in side the bait container so it won't sit on the bottom and bother your anchor in any way too.Hello All
Been viewing posts here for a couple months and have received some great advice so I thought I'd join up and help contribute if I can to this aweseome community.
Anyways, regarding the PVC bait holder idea, I was thinking of doing something very similar for getting more sent around my boat, but I'm wondering: If you use a Anchor Lift system like I do (I use the split ring design) wouldn't the PVC tube hit the ring before the anchor made it there and potentially rip it off? At the same time, I'd want it at least a few feet up-chain from the anchor so it doesn't impede the hook's ability to set properly. Otherwise, seems like a great idea, cause I'm not to keen on lowering something on my rigger and potentially causing problems. Besides, the scent at the anchor is gonna follow you right downstream anyway.
