Fluke anchors...

Looking for one for the yak, found this but looking at the reviews I don't think people realized that you need chain for this type of anchor.

You guys think that chain could make this work or should I go for the next lightest fluke anchor?

I know the rule of thumb of rope length is 5:1 (if I get this, that rope will be put on my drift sock instead), is there a rule about chain length? I'm used to working with big boats so on this small of a scale it kind of eludes me.
