Manual Power Pole Vs. The Bomb
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.
