Double anchor systems

[Vic Carrao]

During the winter we get extrem high tides on the Fraser as far up as 90 km or 60 miles up river. I was wondering if any of you would share your anchoring techniques for fishing for Sturgeon on a incoming tide. I have tried several double anchoring techniques with little luck.

Today was brutal, incoming tide combined with high winds made fishing difficult. We managed to hook 3 fish in 5 hours, worst day since last winter.

The only suggestion I can think of would be to use a sea anchor. Depending on which way the wind was blowing a sea anchor on your stern should keep your bow facing into the current instead of being blown around.

Good Luck
