Same I drift fish most of time too. At long last got a boat with an anchor winch but I am paranoid about hooking up to the bottom on rocky areas, so hardly used it lol

Yes that works- when I lived in Wellington I learnt the hard way when fishing the south coast where the combination of wind and tide has your anchor rope so taught u could walk down it.
The beauty of the grapnel is if it gets stuck u just loop the rope round a cleat at the stern drive forward and up she comes! Then all u do is straighten out the bent prong - needs to be made from reo bar though.
