Highlights

After 40 plus years of rigging decoys, we have learned a few tough lessons. First, if anchors do not stay on your decoys, your bag will be a wreck. You need weights that stay attached to your deeks in your bag until you are ready to set up. Ace Decoy Anchors is one the best we have tested to keep anchors where they belong. They grab the keel of the decoy, the entire system works with a J shaped anchor in 4 and 8 ounce. Included are treated neoprene straps, the strap stretches around the keel for a secure fit. Each one comes with a small piece of tangle free cord, tied to the end of the anchor for simple removal or attachment. The field test is putting out and picking up in bitterly cold weather. As clumsy, as Neoprene gloves are, I can grab the cord on the anchor and lock on to the keel. If affixed properly your blocks will come out of the bag without tangles and setting and picking up is a breeze.


Work on decoys with keels

Are great for short neck or painted decoys
Hook with ease to keel without manipulating decoy or changing hands
Eliminate wrapping around neck/beak, damaging paint
Eliminate falling into bag and getting tangled
Are made for easy retrieval and setting out
Feature heavy duty rubber tubing with replacement tubing available

ACE DECOY ANCHORS are made to save time, reduce tangle, and keep from wearing the paint off necks and beaks of decoys.

Line does not have to be exact, the rubber tubing will give you the play needed to make an attachment to front or rear keel.

Hold decoy in left hand near neck, head facing out, keel facing right. Using right hand wind line on keel. The tubing does not have to be stretched to it's limit, sometimes very little stretching is needed to make a firm attachment to keel. A line is attached with knot to the bottom of anchor. This makes it easier to remove anchor when wearing gloves or in wet conditions.
