That method works perfectly specially on reefs. If you use the anchor the way the companies sells them most likely you will lose a lot of money on equipment if you use it on rocks. I recommend re-tying your anchor like he has it on this vid! Happy fishing 🎣.
The ring clip is not strong enough to hold. Use a large dog leash clip or a carabiner. I use SS on my clips. Though it is a good system the ring clip is really a weak poing.

Mi amigo. Buen video. Solo una observación, si la soga la dejas asi de tirante el precinto nunca va a cortarse si queda trabada. Debes dejarle unos centimetros de panza para poder cortarlo. Saludos desde Argentina.
It looks like you used zip lines around the line to secure your anchor for the emergency jerk if it ever hangs up. Can you break that top zip as planned when you're 20' on the surface?
It will break, I have done it at 110 ft deep. Use a small zip tie. Test the zip ties with your fish scale (if you have one) at your house to see how much force it will require when you really need to break it loose. Hope this suggestion made sense!
@@federicareverie8198 you should watch a video on anchoring a boat. The chain is heavy so depending on the size of the boat you need so much chain to rope. The chain will lay flat on the bottom of the lake while rope just floats.
@@Vera-xu3xw thank you for your answer. I have an infleatable canotto and I really need to learn how to set my anchor system. It's a little hard for me...i have an anchor of 1,5 kg and I must figure out how to set it. I wish soemone with more experience could help me..
The zip ties are actually surprisingly strong. I would recommend giving the edge of the zip tie a little nick with a knife just to get the break started.

This is very useful information for beginners like myself thank you
Great idea
Nice job on the video. I see so many people use big zip ties on the top of the anchor, you can’t break the big zip ties.
They are tough
LOTS of good info for a total newb(ME!) to kayak fishing.......or even just kayaking. Definitely subbing to see what else is coming along.
Best set up on a budget. Well done.
Thanks...I wish I saw this before this past weekend...had to cut my canoe anchor free...lost it on my first trip after purchase
Sorry to hear that, hope it helped with the new anchor

Thanks for the tip!
A great design mate. Well done
Thank you!
wow.. this is impressive I shall do the same. Thanks!
Thanks Bills catch. Great info. Cheers mate and thanks for all the best tips
Thanks, glad it helps!
Perhaps, a thinner, tangle-free cord would be a better choice.
Think I will change my system, I like yours better. Thanks.

I did use zip ties. I used small ones. I've yet to get the anchor stuck so I can't say for certain, but I think it should work.
might be a good thing to test it BEFORE you really need it?

I've always used the 4 or 5 lb lead 'cod weights" ..perfect... haven't lost one to date.... like a hostess twinkie in size ...
Very useful with these zip ties ! :)
They are!
great for my pro angler set up
Don't ya need a chain on your anchor 1st so it lays right?
I don't know if that applies here...
What do you mean by "lay right"? Why, is a chain necessary?

The chain will lay flat on the bottom of the lake while rope just floats.
@@federicareverie8198 there's more to it then my brief explanation lol

Really good info. Thanks
What kind of pin is that?
good tips on kayak anchoring i will use....
Any link for anchor portion? How much does it weigh?
you can do a search for a collapsable anchor on amazon. 3 lbs i believe... maybe 5
Nifty and neat
Or clip is that

Clever! Thanks! >
A demo would have been good
So we are going to pollute the ocean with zip ties
Or anchors...... up to you.
