I enjoyed your video and you gave an outstanding explanation. In comparison, how would two 40 schedule 10' PVC poles (1" & 3/4") work preparing them the same way as you explained using the two aluminum poles? I can believe that the aluminum poles would be heavier and much more nosier than the PVC. Please give me your opinion. Thank you sincerely, Phil
Are you using them for shallow applications for saltwater? It depends on how spooky the fish you're chasing are going to be. I am using this to pin a 21' boat in shallow water. The metal is alot sturdier and doesn't bend. I found from my other video the painters pole is good but it bends too much for myself and I think the PVC would as well. When it does that it looses is holding power. The metal one here, you can remove the inner one, just use outter for being quiet. Especially if you don't need to anchor deeper than 3'. -Kyle
you can attach it via rope. Hoop it around the pole. As it slides down it pulls on a parellel angle to the bottom of the water and creates the stick anchor. Don't just attach it up on the top or acts like a lever and will pull it free. Attach the rope to your rope cleat on the front of your boat. You can move the rope around to different cleats on your boat as well
At the moment I don't. But the handle you can make out of a variety of things. Since the end is hollow metal tube, you don't really need a point. It holds well it muck, sand and fine gravel.
Gonna make this when i am home. This is awesome!
Thanks

Thank you for your reply
great!
thank you
How did you attach to the boat?
you can attach it via rope. Hoop it around the pole. As it slides down it pulls on a parellel angle to the bottom of the water and creates the stick anchor. Don't just attach it up on the top or acts like a lever and will pull it free.
Attach the rope to your rope cleat on the front of your boat. You can move the rope around to different cleats on your boat as well
Thank you.
THAT'S NOT ALUMINUM!
That's galvanized conduit!
I realized after I built and filmed it, unfortunately on UA-cam once a video is posted you can't go back and re-edited the video
Any videos for the point and handle?
At the moment I don't. But the handle you can make out of a variety of things. Since the end is hollow metal tube, you don't really need a point. It holds well it muck, sand and fine gravel.
Could you show this in use?
Not a bad idea. Might be able to do one this spring once Ice is out
