Where did you get your fiberglass rods? Been thinking of something similar myself.

 

[FishingwithRusty]

i dont recall the exact source. if you search for fiberglass fence posts/farm supply you will find them. the 1/2 and 5/8 sizes are what im using. this deal works good and ive got like $20 in materials.

Thats a pretty sweet setup Rusty!

 

[Lx545]

Do you have any issues with the tips wearing? That is a very sweet setup. I was thinking of a way to secure the poles and your idea is simple and slick!

 

[lafae7]

That is a really nice setup rusty. You should of shared that a long time lol

 

[FishingwithRusty]

Thanks guys, a buddy and I came up with it. No problem with wear, have had the same poles for 6-8yrs

There have been windy days just this week where Ive used my Power Poles and I pilot wouldnt have worked because it was too shallow. I have I pilot and Power Poles and use both very often.

Worth the money if you find yourself wanting to anchor down often or if you are a frequent tournament fisherman.

There are much cheaper options for anchoring as well, this is what I used on my boat:

I had some and sold them, Talons 12ft model will hold you in 11ft of water. Hated my power poles. Talons are far superior. Gerald Swindle figured it out. Look on the back of his new boat.

Cool idea!!

Hey Rusty, can you post a pic of your power pole set-up. I'd like to do a low cost set-up for mine. Enjoy your posts.

Found them. Thought I had looked thru all the previous posts but must have missef them some how. Do you stick the bottom or let them drag or both. Thanks

 

[FishingwithRusty]

I can drag them if I need to with tm, but usually stick them in bottom. ive got a set of talons in the works and will be selling this set up once the talons are in place.
