In this video, I show you how to rig your grappling anchor. The way I show is to allow you to retrieve the anchor even if it gets snagged. This is the safest way to rig your grappling anchor. The buoy is optional, I like it so that I can toss the anchor line overboard in case of emergency or to allow me to land a fish that may be large enough to pull the kayak around.

I suggest carrying a few extra zip ties in your kayak along with some electrical tape. Both of those items have multiple purposes when kayaking and kayak fishing.

I show you how to do this on a large anchor, I believe is a 5 lbs. grappling anchor, but for nearly all my kayaks I use a 1.5 or 3 lbs. anchor and it works exceptionally well.
