    this style anchor is called the Columbia River Anchor. Its basically the only anchor anyone uses here in the NorthWest, especially on the Columbia River of course. 100s of complanies make these here. Great Video!

    Gotta love that Miller 211 welder. I've had mine for many years and it's gotta be one of the best all around mig welders for its size. I've used every other Miller, Lincoln and others out there and I'm glad I have that one at home. I have the spoolgun for aluminum too and it makes it such a capable machine you really don't need anything else.
    Great anchor too, that's pretty similar to the ones I use for my big pontoon. Keep up the good work.

      @@FishinNStuff Was thinking the same thing he said.
      #1 just open up the bottom and leave a hole so it will not hold water. Dump paint inside and roll around to coat the inside to stop the rust. Let extra paint drain and dry.
      #2 find a section of heavy wall round tube. Drill out your sq tube to fit the round tube, Weld one side of the round tube in place and run a drill from the other to clean the hole out. Then weld the other side, run a drill to clean out. This will give you a welded in bushing that will not deform if you want to tighten down the bolts and keep it dry.
      But great job, Have one just like it that I got about 10 years back. One of the ones you pictured if I recall.

After several trips it will start to Rust, at that point you will use it and the rust water will dump on the deck of your boat, on your anchor rope and stain it, also if it gets on anything it will mess up that. More worried with the rust stains in the boat and on my gear.

    I would've use a solid piece for the bottom piece of the hinge. Bend it into a U around the anchor and drill the hole for the bolt through the uprights. To break that, you'd have to break the welds AND tear the metal. Much greater fatigue resistance that way

  • @Manmodor007
    @Manmodor007 2 місяці тому +1

    The only issue i see is the swing arm allows water to get in through the pin... Which will eventually lead to rust. Maybe the cheapest solution is to spray a bunch Rust-Oleum paint into the hole. Taping off the hole and shaking the hell out of the bar to ensure everywhere inside is covered. And then let it dry. Just a thought... Galvanized metal or thick aluminum swing arm are options too.

    • @FishinNStuff
      @FishinNStuff  2 місяці тому +1

      @Manmodor007 it'll rust but ive seen 8th inch steel lay out side in the rain for years and still holds its strength at the scrapyard . It's kind of like gluing a gun . It's corrosion , but it slows down the degradation too . But having said that . If it's going to be used in saltwater that's a whole nother story . You can put lead inside like I did on another anchor video I did

    Shouldn't you drill a drainage hole in the bottom of the vertical bar since you drilled a hole for the pin and you welded the bottom closed, or maybe not weld the bottom closed. Also would it help to apply epoxy or bed liner to the inside of that vertical tube so it won't rust inside? Or maybe design a joint that does not require drilling a hole in the vertical bar, maybe have a pin on the outside through a pair of gussets that will keep it from folding until the pin is pulled.

    Awesome DIY videos. I have a question though.. once you drilled the holes for the pin how did you stop the top from filling with water? Thanks man and keep up the great videos.

    With the bottom loop on the side of the anchor for the chain doesn't that defeat the purpose of a breakaway? Cause since it's not on the complete bottom there would be no way to get it unstuck, since you would be pulling from the side and not from underneath it.

    Going to jump on the bandwagon, it's a Columbia River Anchor. Not a KatFish Anchor. 😁😁😁 We've used them for many many decades in the Pacific Northwest. Can't beat them, especially in big, high flow water. We're talking about 30+ ft jet boats that are heavy! Look into how to add a buoy release when you're fighting a big fish like a white sturgeon.

      @@FishinNStuff that's actually good to know! Thanks for the feedback! And to add..... This latest design should hold very well in river current with those reinforced horns. And since you have the anchor with the bottom attachment point it should allow for a zip tie strapped at the top of the shaft to able to break the zip tie and then pivot the boat around the anchor to get it out.
