    Anchoring with a tomcat255 for halibut

    600 feet of line would be enough for me. I wasn't sure how much line could fit. If I could get 600 feet of line that would be plenty. And get a 25lb mansom style anchor. I believe that could work.

    Hauling a tomcat255

    Thanks you guys for your input. I am now leaning more towards an HD 2500 ford truck diesel with a tow capacity of at least 12500lbs. I want to hull our tomcat to various parts of vancouver island that probably has many hills.
