The decoy of claim 1, wherein the locking member includes a lock device and the lock device extends between the spool and the locking member so that rotation of the spool is prevented by the lock device when the anchor device is in the locked position. 3. The decoy of claim 2, wherein a second bias member is located under the lock device so that the lock device moves as a size of the gap changes from the locked position to the deployment position. 4. The decoy of claim 3, wherein the gap in the deployment position is large enough so that the second bias member cannot move the lock device into contact with the spool to prevent movement of the spool. 5. The decoy of claim 2, wherein the spool has a plurality of holes for receiving the lock device to prevent rotation of the spool, and the crank is a foldable crank. 6. The decoy of claim 1, wherein the crank is threaded on a fastener via a crank cap and the fastener connects the crank to the spool so that the crank when rotated in the second direction retracts the anchor. 7. The decoy of claim 6, wherein an anti-rotation device is located at an end of the fastener opposite the crank and the anti-rotation device prevents rotation of the fastener. 8. The decoy of claim 7, wherein the fastener extends through the spool and the spool is axially moved along the fastener by the bias member as the crank is moved in the first direction. 9. The decoy of claim 1, wherein the body has a hollow recess that houses the anchor device and the anchor and anchor line extend through an exit port in the body. 10. A decoy comprising: a. a body having a bottomb. an anchor device comprising: i. a crank;ii. a spool having a rotational axis that is perpendicular to the bottom and the spool being connected to the crank;iii. a fastener extending through the spool;iv. a locking member located proximate to the spool,v. a lock device at least partially located within the locking member, wherein a gap separates the spool and the locking member and the gap in a locked position is sufficiently small so that the spool is prevented from rotating by the lock device extending between the spool and the locking member and the gap in a deployment position is sufficiently large so that the spool is disposed over the lock device and the spool is free to rotate; andvi. a bias member located between the locking member and the spool, the bias member creating the gap between the spool and the locking member when the crank is moved in a first direction and the gap being removed when the crank is moved in a second direction;c. an anchor;d. an anchor line connecting the anchor to the spool so that the spool in the locked position assists in retracting the anchor and in the deployment position allows the anchor to deploy; ande. one or more collapsible keels located on a bottom of the decoy so that during use the one or more collapsible keels during use are extended below the decoy and during storage the collapsible keels are collapsed into a keel recess so that the one or more collapsible keels are substantially planar with the bottom of the decoy; andwherein the spool is axially moved along the fastener by the bias member, forming the gap, as the crank is moved in the first direction. 11. The decoy of any of claim 10, wherein a second bias member is located under the lock device so that the lock device moves as a size of the gap changes from the locked position to the deployment position. 12. The decoy of claim 10, wherein the crank is threaded on the fastener via a crank cap and the fastener connects the crank to the spool so that the crank when rotated, in the second direction, retracts the anchor, and wherein an anti-rotation device is located at an end of the fastener opposite the crank and the anti-rotation device prevents rotation of the fastener. 13. The decoy of claim 10, wherein the spool has a plurality of holes for receiving the lock device to prevent rotation of the spool. 14. The decoy of claim 10, wherein the body has a hollow recess that houses the anchor device and the anchor and anchor line extend through an exit port in the body, and the one or more collapsible keels are a port keel and a starboard keel and the port keel folds towards a first side of the decoy and the starboard keel folds towards a second side of the decoy that is opposite the first side. 15. The decoy of claim 14, wherein the one or more keels include one or more holes, caps, or both that allow for a weight to be inserted into the one or more keels so that the weight assists in maintaining the decoy in an upright position. 16. The decoy of claim 10, wherein the one or more collapsible keels are connected to the decoy on one end and the one or more collapsible keels rotate around the connection so that the one or more collapsible keels are deployed and/or stored, and the connection is two or more unitary pins that extend from a portion of the one or more collapsible keels. 17. The decoy of claim 10, wherein the one or more collapsible keels are connected to the decoy on one end and the one or more collapsible keels rotate around the connection so that the one or more collapsible keels are deployed and/or stored, and the connection is a rod that extends through the end of the one or more collapsible keels. 18.
