 Google "Malooloolaba Pick".

 Google "Malooloolaba Pick". These things are the go. Make sure you attach the chain as they say or you won't get it back. Another bonus is if you freefall these from your winch they go down like a rocket, handy when you're trying to get in the right spot in deep water.

 If your mainly wanting it for reef,  pronged style reef anchor the go. At least can get it to bend and let go, but as an all rounder Sarca all the way....
