    Thanks. Those look cool. Those will work if I can reach the bridge (like South Sauty) but for the beams that are 15 ft in the air I'd need a board and to know how long to cut it.

    I mainly fish 431 / 69 / Town Creek / Short Creek / South Sauty

    Most of the time I'm on the banks though. But when I get up with someone with a boat and want to go night fishing, we never have what we need to tie off sometimes. I just wish someone would make like a draft cheat sheet for newcomers to go by for all bridges. That would be sweet!

    Only negative with anchors is the fish can get wrapped up around the anchor lines and when the water is 30'+ deep like at town creek you move around a lot more than you would if you tied up to the beams.

    Plus there is a good bit of stuff at the bottom of bridges most of the time to get the anchor stuck on. And there is a lot of bouncing going on under these bridges at times.

    Don't know if this will help, but I bought two of these "Branch Grippers"
    (Model BRGPB) from " Catfish Connection" and replaced the string with
    paracord. They work well on brush and tree branches and I would think
    that if you dip the tips in FlexSeal liquid rubber, they would work on metal
    as well. They work great for us up here on Rend & Shelbyville in Illinois.
