Description

The Radius is the anchor Anchor Wizard built for their own system. It is shaped to seat securely in the Anchor Wizard chute rather than swing around on the hull, and Anchor Wizard state it is made to work in any type of water. Two weights are offered: 4 lb for smaller kayaks and calmer water, 6 lb when there is wind or current to hold against.

If you already run an Anchor Wizard crank, this is the anchor it was designed around. The low-profile kayak crank is rated to raise up to 10 lb, so either weight sits comfortably inside what the system can lift, and the rounded profile means it comes home into the chute without catching. Like the rest of the line it is made in the USA.

About the brand

Anchor Wizard makes anchoring simple. Their crank-and-chute systems let you drop and retrieve an anchor from your seat, with one hand, without turning around or hauling wet rope into your lap. Everything is made in the USA and built around the same idea: the less work anchoring takes, the more you fish. At Mountain Sports, we like Anchor Wizard because it solves a real problem on the water instead of adding another gadget to the deck.

Performance

How it ranks across conditions.

Calibrated against comparable products we stock, so you can compare like for like.

Holding power

Light
Moderate
Strong

A 4 to 6 lb anchor is sized for kayaks and small craft on lakes and slow rivers, not for holding a big boat in a blow.

Weight to handle

Featherweight
Manageable
Heavy

4 lb or 6 lb. Heavy enough to set, light enough to crank up one-handed from the seat.

Stows away

Awkward
Tidy
Disappears

The rounded Radius profile is the reason this anchor exists: it drops into the Anchor Wizard chute cleanly instead of hanging off the side of the hull.

Water type

Fresh only
Fresh and salt
All conditions

Anchor Wizard rate it for fresh and salt water. Rinse it after salt use and it will last.

Best for

Is this right for you?

Anchoring a fishing kayak

Lakes, ponds and slow rivers where you want to stop over a spot and stay there while you fish it out.

Not for: This is a kayak-sized anchor. It is not meant to hold a powerboat or to work in fast current or surf. Browse kayak accessories

Completing an Anchor Wizard setup

If you already run the crank and chute, this is the anchor the system was built around, in the weight that suits your boat.

Not for: The anchor is sold on its own. It does not include the crank, the chute or the rope. Everything else for the water

A spare to keep in the truck

Small enough to keep a second one on hand, so a lost anchor does not end the trip.

Not for: Anchor Wizard publish no material or coating spec, so if you need a documented marine-grade alloy for a specific application, ask us first. Browse all gear

Questions, answered

Before you buy.

Pulled from chats, emails and store visits. The things people actually ask us before they buy. Don't see yours?

Ask a question
Which weight should I get, 4 lb or 6 lb?

Go by the water more than the boat. On calm lakes and ponds the 4 lb is usually enough and is nicer to lift. If you fish where there is a steady breeze or moving water, or you are in a longer, heavier fishing kayak, the 6 lb holds better for the small extra effort.

Does this work with my Anchor Wizard crank?

Yes. Anchor Wizard designed the Radius to seat in their own chute, and the low-profile kayak crank is rated to raise up to 10 lb, so both the 4 lb and the 6 lb are well within what the system will lift.

Does it come with rope?

No. This is the anchor on its own. The Anchor Wizard low-profile crank ships with 45 ft of 1/8 inch rope and the mounting hardware, so if you are buying the whole system the line comes from that side of the order.

Can I use it in salt water?

Anchor Wizard say it was developed to work in any type of water, so yes. As with any metal hardware on a kayak, rinse it with fresh water after a salt or brackish trip and let it dry before it goes back in the hull.

What is it made of?

Anchor Wizard do not publish a material or coating spec for the Radius anchor, and we would rather tell you that than guess. If the exact alloy matters for what you are doing, get in touch and we will ask them.
