Manual Power Pole Vs. Hydrolic Power Pole

Who ever first thought of the idea of a manual power pole had to have been a fisherman. But who knows? Maybe he was an air-boat guy somewhere in the Everglades. Both would benefit from using this pole-type anchor and, in fact, many do. Manual power pole or an automatic version, this becomes a 'must-have' for any boater/fisherman who's seen it work.

A manual power pole is a shallow water anchor. It's purpose is to stop your boat exactly where you want it to stop, when you want it to stop, and then hold you in place against the current and the wind (up to 30 mph). It works in up to 8' of water. It allows you to do your thing in the boat, with the secure feeling of being tethered to the bottom.

There's a lot to choose from online in this shallow water anchor category, spanning a wide range in cost and quality. The concept is simple -- stake out your boat to the lake bed, river bed or sea bed. But there are a few different ways to accomplish this mission. Some are slightly tedious while others are totally automatic.

The top of the line is a company that shares its name with the product... 'Power-Pole'. According to them, the P. P. Is Swift and Secure. That's a good slogan because it perfectly describes what they've developed... A way to swift secure your boat when and where you want.

When you're fishing in shallows and you see a place that looks good, you want to be able to stop on a dime and stay put. The P. P. Is deployed in less than 5 seconds and you're free to get on with the business at hand, securely in place.

Having the ability to stop without resorting to the use of a clumsy boat anchor or a noisy trolling motor is a great advantage out there on the water. It doesn't matter what's on the bottom... Mud, sand, rocks, gravel... The power pole will hold you securely against the currents and the wind. The feeling of knowing you're securely tethered will not only ease your mind, but you'll actually be able to catch more fish too.

Those who've experienced the power-pole in action want one and those who already have one wonder how they ever got along without it. A manual power pole is a less expensive alternative. Take a look.

Minn Kota Talon Anchoring System
A New Benchmark For Pole Anchors

Minn Kota (MK) has introduced its Talon shallow water pole or spike anchoring system. Unlike other brands of pole anchoring brands, the Minn Kota Talon anchoring system is based on an electro-mechanical, rather than hydraulic, design. MK believes this is a significant point of differentiation since it makes its system quieter, easier to install, more durable and quicker to deploy. Like other pole anchors, it is also environmentally friendly causing little to no damage to vegetation on the bottom. Cabelas Talon anchoring system comes with a full manufacturers warranty.

Anglers who fish in shallow waters, fresh or salt, are likely to be familiar with pole anchoring systems. They have been around for many years. Hundreds of thousands of systems have been sold to satisfied customers around the world. They are a proven product based on a sound concept. Overall, MK claims its product provides unparalleled and superior performance versus competing products.

Talon allows anglers to quickly and quietly stop and position their boat right where the fish are biting. The system allows anglers to fish more productively without wasting unnecessary time fiddling with the anchor.

The MK product has significant new features compared to other pole anchor systems. One key feature is its auto Pole Up-Down drive feature. This involves a quick one-touch press of a button to activate a fully automatic deployment process. It eliminates the need to place continuous pressure on the button until the spike is fully deployed.

Stowing is just as just as easy. It also is achieved with a quick one-touch button press. Talon can be operated from the control panel or wireless remote control pad.

Importantly, the product provides a solid and secure holding power, the most powerful holding force in its class. The exclusive auto drive feature drives the pole into the bottom using a trio of successive drives. Each drive is powered by a stronger force. The aim of this three-hit process is to drive the pole deeper with more grip than any competing product.

When current and breeze strengthen, the MK product has a Rough Water mode. Using this one-touch facility, anglers can activate to repeat the three-hit drive process at ten-second intervals. This drives the pole deeper, providing an even stronger holding power.

Given its avoidance of hydraulics, Minn Kota Talon anchoring system is easier and less expensive to install. It has a minimal footprint and requires less space overall. Its versatility of movement, both vertically and front-back tilt (up to 30 degrees), allows mounting on any boat configuration without need for modifications.
