When you originally drop your anchor, I see a lot of folks that want to drop a lot of line over the anchor. You need to make sure that all of that line does not get dropped on top of the anchor because it may not allow the anchor to catch in the seafloor. You want to make sure you allow your boats to drift down wind as you put line out. People tend to put too much line out, and the wind catches the whole boat and pushes it down wind. When you feel that anchor catches and the line gets tight on your boat, it will swing your stern around. Then is when you know it catches.

This method is not the smoothest way, ideally you would want to let a bit of line out as possible as you drift down wind and when you get to a good point, then lock it in and see if it holds.
