YakAttack Leverloc Anchor Trolley HD - Heavy Duty Kayak Anchor Trolley Kit

If you’re fishing a waterway that has current. You need this. Works great, and saves a lot of hassle.

It works very well, the only thing I didn't care for was the lack of directions it came with. The backside of the rollers has to be installed on the inside of the kayak. Which will make a preacher cuss trying to get the holes lined up correctly but after it's installed and your wife hasn't filed for divorce it works really well.

The product is durable and easy to install

The set up instructions are a bit confusing to read as they include instructions for both the standard and HD trolley systems together. I would suggest either changing the font to differentiate the two different sets of instructions, or just include them separately on different pages. also, the HD system only includes five of the number 10 machine screws where seven are actually needed, two at the bow, three midship, and two more at the stern if you were going to do it correctly and keep them the same color. The hardware for the pulleys and clamp base is black but silver for the pad hooks. Thank goodness for the sharpie. I would just all the hardware either black or silver, but not both I would prefer black from an aesthetic standpoint. The pulley system itself is great, and installed without issue other than having to use the two extra 1”#9 screws. The instructions do say to use two for the pulleys, but you really only need one of the 1 inch and it doesn’t make sense to install the longer screw where it’s not needed, even though I ended up having to use them anyway. So my recommended change to the parts list would be to only have two of the number nine screws and seven of the number 10 screws.

Parts are cheap for what you pay, not what I expected from yak attack. I reused my expensive ball bearing pulleys, but the rest is useful

I bought the first one 4 years ago after my buddy put one on his and 2 more the following year for two other kayaks. First one was a learning curve and I bought a tube of LEXEL for an extra leak proof seal. String, small washers, thin metal wire and a magnet on a stick make the process easier. Leave an extra 6”-8” on the trolley rope (paracord). Helps if you make it a little too tight. Thinking about putting a kit on both sides of kayak to help with wind shifting but still not sure about having two anchors.

I used the rigging bullets. It was easy to install with just two holes, three aren’t needed like the instructions say to do. Just snug up one bullet with a nut to hold in place, remove the other bullet, screw in the screw and repeat for the other hole. See pictures. One thing I don’t like is that the pulleys don’t spin at all on my boat after tightening them to the boat. They don't spin great even when I leave them a bit loose but what's the point of using the backing plates if you can't screw the pulley assembly to the boat snug enough that it doesn't wiggle. Other (cheaper) trolleys that I’ve installed had a frame around the pulley to prevent that from happening. The pulleys on these press up against the boat and freeze, at least on mine. I'm hoping that it still works ok since the rope slides over the low friction pulley material. I really like the clamp and padeyes. Overall, a bit disappointed but hoping it will still work ok, we'll see.

Product was easy to install while using the easy to follow instructions. As well as the online install videos
