Product Description

The Yak Gear 5 pound Mushroom Anchor is perfect for anchoring kayaks, canoes, stand-up paddleboards, and even jon boats in muddy, sandy, or weeded bottoms. The high-level holding strength provides additional security with a wide area mushroom cap with drains in the base. Shaped like an inverted mushroom, the head becomes buried in the soft seabed and will normally sink into the point where it has displaced its own weight in seabed material. Its one-piece cast iron construction combined with a tough vinyl coating ensures long-lasting dependable use. The anchor is very popular for fishermen and race buoys.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great price. Great anchor.
Reviewed in Canada on August 4, 2019
This anchor is fantastic. It’s less than a quarter of the size of grapnel anchors of the same weight and it holds much better. I use it with a Scotty anchor lock on my Hobie Compass and when I drop that thing the boat doesn’t move even in high winds.
And because of its small size it doesn’t hit against the kayak when it’s in the raised position. It works on any type of bottom, I’ve used it in sand, rock and muddy conditions.

The vinyl coating is also great because it doesn’t scratch my kayak. Great price too.
