@@TinyBoatNation Yes. I used one on my Gheenoe and the fiberglass will dig into hard packed shell bottoms of lakes and the ocean. They are extremely powerful and I would recommend giving them a shot. My only complaint was that if a water splashed over the transom and soaked the unit, it would stop working. I fish in the flats and saltwater started causing corrosion so I decided that the Micro Anchor was not the best for me.
I'm considering this on my kayak, I have a nucanoe f12 so I have the ability to simply swivel around and deploy it. I however would change the length of the leash and maybe install a hook at arm's reach to hang the leash on.
Dude this is so cool. Iv been wanting one for a while and never wanted to pay over $1k for just one and then installing them. I’m sure this will work with my 17ft tracker xl. Love that I don’t have to plug it to a battery.
those look great for sand where they can bite in just from the fall, but in rock? The micro anchor my not be hydraulic, but with the driving force they can at least get better penetration than those. Maybe not, idk. A comparison video would be cool.
I have a 14' Sea Nymph, (FM146), the boat is under 500lbs, would these comfortably work on a boat of that weight? Also, what's the max dept they van be used at? If maxed out, are they difficult to pull up? Thank you for the video, highly interested in these,
one will work but you will spin around the axis of the single pole. with two poles you wont spin at all. same deal with a traditional anchor, you throw it out there and no matter how tight you tie the anchor line you will spin around that anchor with wind and current. 2 poles gets you around this issue. Tight lines!
That looks awesome, definitely going to look into these, I have a 17' crappie boat that I'm converting to an inshore boat (more or less a beefy Jon boat) and have been looking for a more affordable option to power poles. Looking at a pin anchor, but think this looks more like what I want.
Great idea and very simple to build one yourself if you have a welder and some basic knowledge . should think about using skateboard bearings or something like that. that thing will be smooth and drop quicker.
I think you need to revisit the micro as they are quite powerful and lift my 4m fibreglass boat out of the water... you may be suprised

Would be hard to play for my kayak but if you can make it work then OK

Did you ever install them on your tracker xl? I have a tracker xl and was wondering how it worked out
@@derekbond9284 I’m fixing to get a pair for a 16’ xpress
How do they work in gravel, rocks and current?

Will they fit on a 1989 17 foot Tracker Tournament Tx
Yes, the largest ones will
Do you have any pics or dimensions for adding linear actuators?
Soon
Love the micro anchor on my 10’ predator
Need to make a teloscoptic power pole for little John boats so its tucked awayon the back and nothing it sticking up in the way that would be sick
Would one work okay or is two recommended?

Waiting for availability
do you think those would work on a 20 foot pontoon boat?

You wouldn't need bearings. Nylon bushings and grease would work just fine.
Great video
Please don’t discontinue these.
Haha no chance of that
You forgot the most important aspect of a power pole is that they are silent. Dropping that anchor is going to make noise
@@TravelingStacker you need the weight of the drop for these to dig in. Otherwise you will just drag along the bottom
Awesome video. God is good. God bless stay safe!
The tires look ridiculous…
I sense some bias lol. Of course you’d knock the competitor when you sell these in your shop.
I can build it a little bit different
First
wow
