A line lock groove holds the amount of line you have deployed, and a tail rope passage lets you run it outside the anchor trolley ring for true quick release. It comes with 75 ft of 550 paracord and track hardware, and works with YakAttack, Scotty, RAM and YakGear track systems.

Specs at a glance

  • Dimensions: 14 x 6.38 x 0.75 in
  • Included: 75 ft of 550 paracord, Mighty Bolts and knobs for track mounting
  • Compatibility: YakAttack MightyMount and GearTrac, most Scotty, RAM and YakGear track
  • Not included: GearTrac

Good to know

  • FeelFree, 3 Waters and Jonny Boats owners need an adapter to mount it on their track.
  • Direct track mounting is meant for flat water with no current; in current, run the line outside the trolley ring so it can release.

KayakDIY take: Loose anchor line is a tangle waiting to happen, so I like a reel with a real quick release. For more options, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
