Abstract: A lineless anchor weight assembly attachable to a floating object and method for making, comprising a rigid rod permanently attached to an environmentally safe, hermetically encapsulated, solid lead weight. The impermeable encapsulate may be of a polyvinylchloride. The rod may be of a fiberglass or of a naturally-occurring material exhibiting rigidity. The floating object may be a decoy, such as a puddle duck decoy with a keel having a receiver aperture for receiving the anchor weight attachment means. One end of the attachment may be a connector means for fastening the attachment means to the floatable object and may also be attached to the rod. Alternatively, if the decoy has a receiver aperture above the keel, the anchor weight attachment means further comprises an adapter to provide for such attachment. The assembly is for anchoring, throwing, and retrieving a decoy eliminating any problems due to tangling.
