Make them all the same length Just make them adjustable. Ron Marsh gave me this idea. Take a large washer drill two holes so they line up on one side of the washer. Now just run your cable through these two holes. You can place a stop button on that end of that cable but once that washer locks up on that cable your good to go. The large washer will be your staking point on the bank and the other end just use a slip noose. Coil up your extra cable and just leave It on the bank or let It lay In the water.

Colored zip ties on the anchor end will last longer than paint or electrical tape. The adjustable ones would seem to be the best but I prefer drowning rods so not much help.
Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.

No reason I can think of to have different lengths. If the creek Is 6' wide and you have 10' cables just run your cable up or down stream to compensate for the added length. Or Use an adjustable set up.
