    I am looking to buy a 3-5 lb grappling style anchor for my kayak. Nobody in the city seems to have. If you got one that you are willing to part with, let me know. I am in the market for one.

    Cargo east would have one in less then a week if you were to order from there.

    Their catalog shows a grapnel kit with anchor,bag & rope with float for $60.
    Fluke anchor kit for $42.
    Or grapnels at 1.5/3.5/5.5lbs $14-$35

    Well, I guess my impatience got the best of me. I ended up with a 5lb fluke style anchor. It's probably a little overkill but I'd rather have too much anchor than not enough (within reason that is).

    It's not nearly as compact as the grappling style but it's small enough that I can make it work
