Ideal for anglers in kayaks and other small watercraft, this kit includes a folding 2-lb. anchor, 50 ft. of anchor line and
a system to let you operate the anchor remotely from the cockpit. Carry case included.
I needed an anchor system for fishing in the river. Some of the rigs I have seen has a pulley system. This system is cheaper and works just as well or better. Very sastified with the product.
I got this anchor to use in my one man sneak boat when fishing. It does a super job and is lightweight and easily stowed. In fact, with its collapsable flutes, it holds as well as other anchors weighing much more. Even though it was designed for a kayak, it clearly has applications on any small or lighweight watercraft.
I wasn't sure I even needed this kit with the trolley system. I was just going to rig an anchor of the stern handle. Boy am I glad I got this. It works great! It is super simple to deploy the anchor and move it anywhere from the bow to the stern based on wind/current/fishing conditions. The anchor itself come pre-connected and is a really cool folding design with a lock ring that works great. Install ation was about as easy as it gets... On my Wilderness Systems Pamlico 10 I hooked one carabiner to the bow handle and one to the stern handle and ran the trolley rope up the starboard side. There are two reasons for the 4 stars instead of 5 - 1. To really be complete they should have included an anchor float and a small cleat. 2. I really wish they would have included some kind of rope guides to attach to the hull. Those are all things I will add myself so it's no big deal, I just wish they were in the kit. As others have stated, there is no block included, just carabiners. I think this is actually a good thing because without the friction that the carabiners provide the anchor would be free to move around too much.
