I have always dropped the bow anchor first set it in deep with the motor then backed into the beach and dragged the other anchor up onto or near the beach from the stern. My main heavy danfort goes off the bow and a lighter danfort off the stern, would rather have the rear beach anchor let go than the one bow anchor which is holding me off the beach. Outboard goes way up once anchored this way to avoid hitting bottom when leaving I’ll pull myself into a bit deeper water with the bow anchor line before firing up the engine.
