Everybody has an opinion!!!
I switched out a 65lb CQR for an 88lb Rocna on our 65000lb trawler several years ago. It has never dragged. We do use a minimum 5x chain scope with a snubber. Given windy conditions we go as much as 10x scope. We carry 350ft BBB chain. The CQR with chain and line is the back-up that we have not needed since we got the Rocna. The Rocna just grabs straight away when it hits the bottom.
