Mighty mite

I picked up the MM last year , it started out being a good anchor then about half way through the season it lost its integrity. I did get it hung up a couple times that I almost lost it but managed to pull it free. Around mid summer if I wanted to hold on structure in 15k or more wind I couldn't because the prongs would straighten. Is there a better grapnel out there? If anyone makes a good homemade grapnel lemme know I do rods

Tony; have a buddy who welds make you one (not me I dont weld)
Just get a bunch of rebar and bend it into shape and weld em togethor. when it gets hung it starightens one prong and you just bend it back at home or the dock.
