Drift or Anchor.. which is best ?

Looking for Bass . Using chunks. Or even jigging. Which is best over a rocky bottom?

I would usually drift you'll cover more ground and you don't have to worry about losing an anchor in the rocks

Jigging I would drift. Chunking, I usually drift until I find a good hole and then I anchor over it.

Yeah, I like drifting ONLY because the anchor is a PITA. What about live lineing. Still drift also ?
