Update
Drilled 20 11/64ths inch holes in the fluke of the Supreme Stinger.
11/64ths is almost 3/32nd.
Small holes but this is a 12lb anchor. Drilled plenty of them hoping more smaller holes may do a better job. If the anchor comes up clean they stay small. Plan on a fairly deep countersink on both sides to promote water transfer from under the fluke to between the fluke and the mud. If not they get bigger starting w three near the center of the fluke either side of the shank attachment.
I also plan (later) to put dimples on the upper fluke surface. My idea is to cut the heads off of SS round head screws. Socket heads. Small to help keep the mud moving along. That could prove difficult. Attach w JB Weld most likely.
