I probably should put a short chain on mine to protect the rode, but it is hard enough already for my little girls to pull in the 20 pounder by itself.
As for how long should your rode be, triple the depth and there you are.
If you are anchoring in 10 ft of water x 3 = 30 feet of achor rode required.
So I carry at least 300 ft.
