How to Deploy Water Rescue Thorw Bag
STEP 1: Secure the Carabiner to a Stable Anchor Point
・ Attach the carabiner to a non-movable, weight-bearing structure (e.g., boat railing, fixed post, rescue harness, or sturdy tree) to prevent slippage during rescue.
・ Double-check the locking mechanism—ensure the carabiner gate is fully closed and screwed tight (if applicable) to avoid accidental release.
・ If no anchor is available, a rescuer can act as the anchor by wrapping the rope around their torso and bracing firmly.
STEP 2: Aim & Throw with Controlled Force
・ Kneel for stability (if on a boat) and use an underhand toss to create a gentle arc, ensuring the bag lands 1–2 meters past the target to account for water drift.
・ Shout "GRAB THE ROPE!" as you throw to alert the victim. Avoid high-force overarm throws that may tangle the rope or risk injury.
・ In windy conditions, aim slightly upwind and use a weighted throw bag design to maintain trajectory.
STEP 3: Retrieve with Steady, Rhythmic Pulling
・ Crouch low and pull hand-over-hand to maintain balance, using your body weight for leverage. Avoid jerking motions that could destabilize the victim.
・ If resistance occurs, reposition to a better angle or enlist a second rescuer to assist.
・ Post-rescue, re-coil the rope neatly into the bag for rapid redeployment, ensuring no knots or tangles remain.

Lightweight, but I believe it meets state requirementsDoesn’t take up too much space

Great concept . It is easy to throw and due to the design the rope in the bag adds a little weight making it be able to be thrown a farther distance. It does float once it lands on the water in addition to the bright color these features make it easy to locate and grab . The top of the bag has a buckle handle in addition to the carabiner clip making it easy to tote around and to secure this to pools , fences , kayak, boats or even to yourself . It does take a little time to place the rope back in the bag just make sure you do not tangle it to prevent and issues for future use . It has a lot of good qualities however I do wish the foam ring at the bottom was thicker or sewn into the bag to prevent movement and or deterioration with prolonged use . Otherwise this is a great item to keep in hand for various water situations to aid with human and animal safety .

This is basically for emergencies, so I haven't had to use it in real life, but line plays out nicely, the clip allows me to quickly connect it to my kayak should I need to use it, it appears to work as intended, and the length is probably more than I will ever need to throw it. The plastic doughnut at the thrown end is pretty small, so don't expect a life ring, but it is enough to grab onto. Practice on land first.

You get a nice long throw, with this product. Beat a throw cushion which I have both.

This unit deploys nicely. You must secure the carabiner to your boat, then throw the whole bag and ring. They go flying very easily. Just make sure you stuff the line back in in a way that will allow it to deploy easy again. I would trust my life to this device if needed.$20 is a deal when it comes to a life.

I bought this to keep in my car for emergency situations. It is now part of my emergency kit.It is nice, but not great. The bag is ok, but may not hold up over time. Of course if I use it once, that's enough!Entire thing is fairly light, but the addition of the donut at the throwing end gives it enough weight that it throws real well. It is fairly easy for me to throw it most of the 50 ft length.Just like all these bags, repacking the rope takes time and is super important to be able to quickly and effectively use the bag the next time. If you haven't been trained, you'll want to watch some videos on how to do it properly. You should also practice throwing it so you are prepared to use it.The carabiner is good - pretty heavy though. There are times you might use it, but I don't clip it around my body in case I need to separate myself from the rope. I might need to wrap the rope around a tree or another stationary object, though, and then the carabiner would be handy.Overall, a good deal for the price and worth having for emergencies.

Learn from me, and get yours now. I always wanted one but never got it and I needed it and didn't have it. Now I do and am very happy I do. I got pulled in to a root ball on the river and had no throw line to toss to people to help me. This would have saved me from a lot of scary stuff I had to do to get free. This rope is perfect for keeping in my kayak. 50 feet is a great length for our rivers and even the lakes I go to. I'm pretty sure I can't throw 50', at least not while balancing on my kayak anyway. The rope is soft yet feels very strong, says it is 1900lb tensile, which should be good enough for what I am doing. I keep it carabinered to my seat just under me. The ring is weighted and floats, even the bag has a flat ring of foam in it to make it float too. The bag has a reflective strip on it you can hold up if you get lost in the dark and folks are sweeping flashlights past you looking for you, to help them find you. And the rope itself is reflective too. Don't put it off for as cheap as this fantastic throw line is you should get it and put your mind at ease knowing your covered, it's worth it.EDIT: I had to edit this because I just saw the name of this is called Wiseroot?! I feel like this was meant to be.
