WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY Mike, Hi and thanks in advance for your helpful advice. I am searching for a power pole for my husband for Father's Day. I know nothing! I do know that we fish in the Gulf on the flats and his boat is 17ft Capehorn. Will the Dig In work for us and if so, which model and how do I know if he'd need stern or bow mount? Thanks SOOOO much! Renee D. - Starke, Fl Mike, I came across your site while searching for power poles. I really would prefer your system over the power poles setup. I am a crappie fishermen fishing in the CrappieMasters and Crappie USA fishing circuit. I was wondering if you have some kind of affliate program for semi pro fishermen. I think your product would be huge in our type of fishing setups. I would be more than happy to pass out literature at seminars and display your sticker on my boat. What ever you prefer. I think your bow mount setup would really be a hit with crappie fisherman. David P. - Houston, TX Mike, I just got a 2011 Tidewater 180CC. Center Console 18ft I have a trolling motor and a 90 hp I fishing in the water way at nc beaches with the different tide 7-8 ft and currents and the waves, what is the right system for my needs. I was going to get the talon and found your web site. I saw you had dealers in SC how about NC I am wanting the best system Thanks Charles D. - Fayetteville, NC Mike, I'm interested in Bass Boat and Multi-species Boat applications / installations. As the former President of the RI BASS Federation Nation and current officer of my Bass Club, I would imagine several people in my area (Rhode Island / Massachusetts) should be interested in an economical alternative to the costly Power Pole. I'm interested in various self-installation alternatives you may shed light on. I can see one huge advantage to your product in a headwind with the bow mounted system. Roy - Boston, MA Mike, I own a g3 1860 ccj dlx and have been looking at your product for a couple weeks. I am sold, but am curious as the best mounting options. I like the idea of mounting to stock trolling mount, but wonder how easily that would go doing it myself. Any thoughts or other options? Also I?d like the Fish Hunter package, any recommendations on the stern? I mainly fish on the Potomac and tributaries, just FYI. Ronnie B. - Martinsburg, WV Mike, Thanks very much. I really think this will be a perfect product for placing my boat perfectly in the the brush to catch crappie. I was seriously looking at the talon but it only reaches down 8' so there are a lot of situations for me that it would have been no use and it would be hard to buy two of them and you cannot mount one on the bow. So when I seen the dig in, I knew that's what I was going to buy. If you ever come out with 15' poles let me know cause I would buy some. Thanks a bunch for making a great product !!!! I will pass the the word around in Ohio here because there is a lot of business to be gotten up here in the north. Your anchors aren't just for them southern boys. Wish you had some dealers up here !!! God bless Erik B. - Morral, OH See What Others Have Had To Say

Fisherman's Soap
Eliminating Fish smell, Skunk odor, Onion scent and Cigarette fumes

This product combats many different smells and has a wide variety of applications. It has been very effectively used by scientists and by those who work in the fishing industry. It also helps clean aquariums, to remove the skunk odors, and to clean fishing tackle.

Check It Out

Scientists who work for higher institutions, governments or corporations probably do not want to walk around smelling of fish. Unfortunately, smells can linger on anything that comes in contact with fish or sea life, including people, clothes, and tools. For those working for conservation of marine life, Fisherman's Soap is the perfect solution. It is safe to use and has no toxins so it does not harm the environment. It is also relatively cheap.

It also has beneficial applications to many fishing industries. Cleaning up after processing sea food and eliminating its odors can be made quick and easy. This applies to individuals who work with oysters, shrimp, clams, scallops, lobsters and crabs. For all of these, equipment, boats, and workers must all be kept clean.

In aquariums, sometimes bacterial growth becomes overwhelming. In these situations, it is important to clean out the entire tank. To assist with this process, combine Fishermans Soap with warm water. Then apply this solution to the bottom and sides of the tank. Make sure to rinse thoroughly afterwards, and before refilling the tank with water. Before replacing and dirty and grimy aquarium decorations, these can also be cleaned off with the same soapy warm water solution. Make sure you rinse off all residue before returning them to the tank.

Thee Fishermans Soap is also beneficial for use on larger pets. When dogs come in contact with skunks and get sprayed, it can eliminate those odors. It's effects last, unlike treatments with tomatoes, which mask the scent until it wears off. Shampoos will not be strong enough. But this brand has been successfully used by customers to clean their pets of the offensive odor.

Finally, tackle gear smells can be eliminated. First remove all equipment and rinse out the container with Fishermans Soap and warm water. Make sure to get every hinge and compartment. Then dry with a towel. Clean all equipment and wash hands as well. During the washing process, human odors will be washed away. Therefore it is unnecessary to add artificial fish scent to mask human odors.

This brand of soap has many useful applications. It can help fish and marine professionals maintain an odor free appearance and environment. Further it helps with cleaning and odor elimination for several marine industries. It can clean aquariums and tackle, and even fight off the perfume of a skunk. It has no chemicals and can be purchased cheaply.

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. Leading outdoor outfitter Cabelas can supply you with trolling motors Talon anchoring system and much more.

Buying The Right Fishing Boat

Everyone gets the urge every couple of years to either to buy our first boat, or to trade the one we already own. That desire normally over takes us right in line with the spring boat show going down at the convention center, and typically its hard to resist. Feels like every year boat manufacturers add a little something new and unexpected that didn't come with the currently model we are so proud of.

If your idea of fishing involves stout tackle, huge fish and miles of open seas, you want a boat capable of handling any conditions. Seaworthy vessels include basic center consoles and cuddy cabins with single or twin outboards up to convertible or bluewater fishing machines with fancy salons, plush quarters and powerful inboard diesel engines.

Are you ready for a new boat? Going for the right fishing boat can be a nightmare and also, if done properly, a lot of fun. If this is your first boat buying experience, beware, it can be an intimidating venture to say the least.

Before you start looking, it's important to consider the purpose of your fishing boat. A fishing boat serves but one purpose - fishing. You have to decide if you plan to fish in the ocean, or in other bodies of water, such as lakes. This is very important, as there are different types of fishing boats available.

If you plan to use your fishing boat for ocean cruising and overnight stays, it would be ideal to buy one that has a hull. This design is meant for rough waters, riding the waves, and providing more comfort for anglers while they fish.

When buying a flats fishing boat, make sure the purchase includes a warranty. Then study the warranty. All warranties are the same. Most people find that purchasing thru a dealer is the more convent decision. Most dealers provide repair services as well as advice on the proper maintenance and servicing.

It's also important when buying a fishing boat to note if the boat is certified by the NMMA. This agency will guarantee that the certification they give to every boat passes the agency's standards of excellence.

When it comes down to it, you should do more than just look around when it comes to a fishing boat. You should learn how to look for the best details to ensure that your boat is worth the money. If you take the time to look around, you'll find a boat that you can truly be proud of.

Go Back Country For Shallow Water Fishing

If you want the best of shallow water fishing, you can't afford to miss this natural fisherman's paradise. Most of Florida Bay is considered part of the Everglades National Park. As such, it combines fresh water from the Everglades with the salty brine from the Gulf of Mexico, working together to provide some of the best fishing around!

This estuary winds its winning way through hundreds of small islands. The shallow water fish you are likely to come across includes snook, redfish, snapper and tarpon. Not to mention the abundant variety of wildlife, such as alligators, turtles and birds. But what about the boats necessary for such pleasure trips?

"Flats fishing," as it is also called, requires special shallow water boat called a skiff. These boats are specially designed to be wide and stable, affording sportsmen the opportunity to fish in water as shallow as three feet. When you can actually SEE the fish you're after, it really adds to the experience.

And you definitely want that vessel to be able to "run skinny"! After all, if a shallow water boat can't give you extreme shallow water performance while still being able to handle sudden rough or choppy waters, it's not what you need. Shallow water boats worthy of the name should be able to take off from as little as ten inches of water!

With a boat and a guide, you can explore Florida Bay, and go after such prizes as the afore-mentioned tarpon, trout, snapper and redfish. These fish can be bigger than expected. For example, tarpon can get up to 40 or 50 pounds.

The skiff will have a platform that enables the guide to scan the horizon, thus ensuring the visibility needed to navigate for optimum shallow water fishing. The boat's motor may not even be used, as loud sounds can frighten away shallow water fish. All the better, then, that the guide is able to use the pole to steer among the banks, and move silently.

While the shallow water boat treks smoothly along the back country, this will be the fisherman's chance to take in Florida scenery at its most pristine. He can view all manner of plant life, from orchids and primordial fern to the draping Spanish moss so typical of Florida forests. He can catch a glimpse of turtle or deer, in addition to the shallow water fish just inches away.

The best shallow water boats also provide below deck storage areas for stowing gear, thus increasing and maximizing clear space on deck for optimum freedom of movement. When you're ready to cast, the last thing you want is to trip. If you can find the right boat, shallow water fishing should be a dream.
