Power Pole Anchors Allow Fishermen To Spend More Time Fishing Less Time Anchoring

The modern notion of pole anchors for small recreational boats has now taken hold. They have been around for years and well tested by consumers in the market. The idea was launched in 1998 by a committed, shallow water, USA fisherman who designed a system specifically to meet his requirements. He took an ancient notion and combined it with latest technology to produce hydraulic holding power. He then marketed his design as an attractive, easy-to-use product to share it with other enthusiasts.

Several other boat pole systems have been developed in the interim. Today, a number of alternatives are marketed providing consumers with plenty of choice. These alternatives are all basically variations on the same theme. The key task is the same; push a four to eight foot pole into the ground with the boat tethered to it.

Shallow water sport fishing necessitates frequent boat stopping and positioning so that target fish can be spotted, the area worked and then left for the next spot. And all of these actions should ideally be performed quickly, with little or no noise and fuss. Importantly, it should also be done in a green, eco-friendly way without damage to the ground. In short, the products needs to be silent, swift, secure and green.

Systems have a hydraulic action that extends and retracts the anchor-arm rapidly, usually in under five seconds. Rapid deployment allows good boat control. The craft can be stopped as soon as fish are spotted, whatever wind or current conditions prevail.

The pole slides smoothly into the water with a hush, using a quiet pump system. There is minimum fuss and noise to disrupt the environment or fish. No wash or noise from a trolling motor and clanking anchor.

Once a boat pole anchor is firmly fixed in the ground, hydraulic power locks it in place. There is no drift. There are no anchor lines. There is no damage to the water bed. The whole process is achieved simply yet effectively. When it is time to leave, the anchor pulls in easily and cleanly. No sand mess, mud odor or sea grass annoyance to clog an anchor or clutter a boat.

Pole anchors are surprisingly lightweight; an entire system typically weighs only 23-28 pounds. They often come supplied with several handy optional extras such as a remote control pad or a foot-switch for hands-free operation. They easily mount onto a transom. When not being used, they retract to a neat, slim line profile that is unobtrusive and never interferes with maneuvering the boat in or out of the water.
