Kayak anchoring system

I don't have an anchoring system on my kayak but need to get one. I fish a lot of fast current (and windy) areas with very sandy bottoms (north Cape Cod area). Can anyone recommend a good system (brand and model) that they've had good success with for very sandy bottoms and swift currents?

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

You can just make it yourself, it's really easy and very inexpensive as well. check it out on KFS.com to see pictures or also on yakdwags.com under anchor Trolley.

They are easy to make up. Check out the sites mentioned above.

Word of caution though, DO NOT ANCHOR IN HEAVY CURRENT. If you must , you better have a good knife handy.
