You coult just add 5 or 10 mt of chain to your anchor chain amd just pull it up normally to see if it makes a difference

Just thinking you could add a 5kg weight to your chain where it meets your rope so it keeps your chain on the bottom

See if that helps befor you go spend heaps on a new anchor.

Of that doesnt hold bottom it will be cos the anchor not digging in
