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.

Getting To Know The Minn Kota Talon

A day out fishing is supposed to be about peace and quiet and no hassles. You catch more fish when it's like this. Especially in still, shallow water, successful fishing demands that there be a steady tranquility. And the shallow water anchor you use can go a long way in either preventing or allowing the necessary qualities for a good fishing day to manifest. The Minn Kota Talon shallow water anchor is a new addition to the stern of many fishing boats that offers an interesting alternative to the Power Pole shallow water anchor. Let's take a look at a few things that are new and innovative about the Minn Kota Talon.

The fundamental difference between this new anchor and most of the other shallow water anchors on the market, the Power Pole included, is that the Talon's anchor setting system is electrical and mechanical, not hydraulic. This fact allows the operator to induce several software features and special modes (more on these later) and to operate the anchor with a wireless remote. The electrical operation can speed things up too, allowing the operator to press a button once and deploy the anchor instead of having to hold the button down the entire time that the anchor is deploying.

The M. K. T's most impressive feature, and one that is lacking on hydraulic models like the Power Pole anchor, is the autodrive feature. When the anchor is set, the autodrive applies three hits to drive the anchor securely into the river/lake/ocean floor. These successive hits--all accomplished without time consuming assistance from the operator--assures that the anchor is securely set.

One of the special features on the Talon, related to the autodrive feature, is the rough water mode. When the water gets rough and threatens to dislodge you from your spot, the anchor will apply six extra hits on top of the three already applied via the autodrive. The Power Pole doesn't offer this feature.

Also unique to this anchor is the wave absorption mode which basically engages a suspension on the anchor that allows the anchor to move with the boat in waves or otherwise rough water. You don't want to keep having to reset your anchor just because the waves are acting up a bit. That's valuable fishing time lost!

Yet another special feature of the anchor is the electronic depth indicator located on the back of the anchor and easily visible from the rear of the boat. Each unit of depth is represented by one LED, and this lets you accurately gauge how deep the anchor is already set and how much deeper it can go. This feature, along with the wave absorption mode, the autodrive, and the rough water mode are all unique to the electronic, battery powered operating system.

The Minn Kota Talon shallow water anchor offers several advantages over hydraulic based anchors like the Power Pole. All and all, the many unique modes and features make it easier to catch fish and enjoy the day.

Power Pole Anchor - Is It A Good Idea? Ask Someone Who Has Used One

The power pole anchor is it a good idea seems like a rhetorical question. The system is an innovative solution that allows a small boat to be anchored in a flash and without disturbing the fish. That is why shallow water fishing enthusiasts love it. They can position their boat quickly, quietly and precisely without spooking the fish.

They are superb for low water areas like inland channels waters, rivers and lakes. They are similar in purpose but different in design to the Cajun anchor popular in the shallow waters of south-east Louisiana.

Fishing enthusiasts that use the system highlight its ability to be deployed and retracted repeatedly in rapid succession. The anchor literally takes just a few seconds to deploy and about the same time to retract. This allows the boat to be continuously repositioned as it is moved along to track the fish. With this ability, sight fishing and trolling become a breeze.

Using the system, sight fishing, and fishing downwind, could not be easier. It also improves the ability to control a lure in windy conditions. Many consider the system a significant improvement on the next best alternatives, namely, a trolling motor.

These anchors provide a real alternative to a trolling motor. Trolling in a slow-moving boat allows the bait at the end of the fishing line to appear as if it is moving naturally through the water. Because of its rapid deploy capability, of a power pole allows a fishing enthusiast to periodically drift, then fix, then drift and so on. The system saves the constant wear and tear on a trolling motor. Some choose to do away with a trolling motor all together. It also eliminates the noise of a trolling motor.

The shallow water system was inspired by the ancient method of mooring a craft to a vertical pole that was tapered at one end and then speared manually into the bottom. The modern system is essentially an ungraded version of that idea. The system employs modern hydraulics to spear the pole and to increase its holding power. The system safely anchors vessels up to about 3,000 pounds of dry weight, with 30 feet an overall length in winds up to about 30 mph.

With so many advantages its seems churlish to ask power pole anchor is it a good idea. Check around and see for yourself. The system is so popular that you are bound to find someone who has one and would never look back.

Power Pole Anchor Allow Safe, Secure Shallow Water Anchoring

The power pole anchor system is an innovative solution for quickly and quietly securing small, fishing and other pleasure boats in shallow water up to about eight feet deep. Fishing enthusiasts favor the system since they can place their vessel quickly, quietly and precisely. This helps to avoid spooking the fish and allows the angler a host of other sporting advantages.

Fishing enthusiasts that use the system highlight its ability to be repeatedly deployed and retracted in rapid succession. The anchor literally takes just a few seconds to deploy and about the same time to retract. This allows the boat to be continuously repositioned to move along tracking the fish. With this ability, sight fishing becomes a breeze.

Using this system, sight fishing and fishing downwind could hardly be easier. It also improves the ability to control a lure in windy conditions. Many consider the power pole system a significant improvement on the next best alternatives, namely, a trolling motor and the cajun anchor.

The power pole shallow water anchor was inspired by the ancient method of mooring a boat to a vertical pole thrust manually into the bottom. The modern power pole system improves on that technique by employing hydraulics to secure the pole and ensure maximum holding power. The system can safely anchor boats with a dry weight up to about 3,000 pounds, with an overall length of about 30 feet and in winds up to about 30 miles per hour.

The anchor can be deployed-retrieved quickly and easily, literally in seconds and by pushing a button. The anchor grabs and locks securely into most bottom types such as mud, silt, sand, rock, stones, or most types of sea grasses.

The system is designed as a stern anchor. It bolts directly onto the transom above the waterline, either port or starboard side. It can be used with outboard or inboard motors. When not being used and the boat hauled, the system easily folds compactly to remain on the transom in vertical profile.

The power pole can be used in both fresh and salt water. Boat batteries power the system which requires minimal draw. The unit comes supplied with an optional remote control pad that allows its one-handed operation. Once deployed, the power pole anchor can be used as the prime anchor device without the need to also deploy a conventional anchor. This makes the system eco-friendly since it causes minimum disturbance to sea grasses and other marine life.

Information About Coastal Fishing In North Carolina

If you are visiting the beautiful state of North Carolina, there is no better way to obtain an authentic cultural experience, then to rent a charter boat and go coastal fishing in North Carolina. The state of North Carolina is lined with almost 4,000 miles of shoreline due to its many bays, islands, rivers and sand bars, so the obvious activity among its local residents is fishing.

If you are new to fishing and do not own a boat on the North Carolina shoreline, you can rent a charter boat. Anyone from beginners to expert fisherman can rent a fully-equipped charter boat to take out for a day of fishing with the family.

Offshore, you will find an unbelievable abundance of fish from Marlin to Mahi Mahi and Yellowfin Tuna. The Gulf Stream runs just 40 miles off of the coast of North Carolina, bringing with it a huge variety of offshore species that will have even the most inexperienced fishers reeling in their lines.

If you are more interested in inshore fishing, the barrier islands create essentially protected waters that provide the perfect conditions for catching trout, redfish and flounder. With a little bit of luck and practice, you could be returning home with one of those giant trophy sized fish and an amazingly fresh seafood dinner. How exciting would it be to know that you were responsible for catching that night's dinner?

Catching fish is not always easy because schools of fish are always traveling around the waters. Checking up to date fishing reports either in the news paper, on TV, or online can help you get an idea of where the fish are really biting on a day to day basis.

Another way of increasing your chances of coming home with a winner is by taking an experienced fisherman along with you on your charter boat to help you with a few tips here and there. Having someone who knows the patterns fish follow, the types of bait they like, and the depth at which they swim, can greatly increase your probability of success.

Lastly, fishing is a sport that requires patience. You cannot head out on a boat with the same "go and get them" attitude that you take to the rugby field. Of course, once you feel a bite, you have really got to let them have it because fish can be strong and very stubborn.

For those who just want to spend a day with their family, coastal fishing in North Carolina, without the extravagance of heading out on a charter boat, pier fishing is the perfect activity.
