does any one have any experience using or owning a electric anchor winch. I mostly catfish during the summer months when the fishing is slow I like to move around a lot. my friend I fish with had a heart attack a while back and cant handle the other anchor any more and I'm tired of tripping over all his junk in the boat. I mostly fish shallow water with a mud bottom in the river. Just wondering do they work pretty good or they more hassle than there worth.

Very worth the money, specially in rivers with some current. Good batteries help the situation, but if you get the winch done by someone who knows there stuff it should last a while.
