Johnny: I have been using a simple lead weight to anchor my sit in kayak for a while now but just purchased a 3# folding anchor similar to the one you show in your post.
I will be using a trolley system to deploy it near the cockpit and move it to bow or stern. A short length of bungee will be used to allow for some stretch, and a carbiner will allow me to disconect from it. With a small float I can return and reconnect.
I will have a rescue type knife on my PFD, in case of trouble. Adding a short lenght of chain to the top of the anchor will help it dig in to sandy bottoms.
I fish some rocks offshore and usually anchor up on the lee side.
I'll also be using it on slow moving streams and ponds.
