Correction: i misspoke earlier, i meant buntline hitch rather than midshipman knot, which is a tautline variation. Very easy to tie, very secure, tightens in use, compact, and when you pull the crab you can easily untie. I watched a video once about how a scaffold knot could be tied incorrectly...

I would go anchor, although i use the midshipman hitch a bunch too.
