This article is a review of the power pole style anchor. Pole Style Anchors are subcategory of shallow water anchors.
The anchor's strengths are that it is swift, silent, and secure.
It is known for its three characteristics. It is swift. It is silent. And, it is secure.
The power pole runs on a pump system, a hydraulic one. It is silent, and therefore appropriate for the serious fisherman. Because it is mounted at waterline level, in the back of the boat, as well as activated from within the boat, via a button, it is far more quiet. There are no loud splashing sounds, so that the avid angler is able even to approach a school of fish, thus increasing the catch.
Historically speaking, anchors would allow drifting, due to the rope design. The gain, there, however was that it was rugged, more so than the power pole, which does suffer from this weakness. However, it is designed to hold the position of the boat secure, by implanting its pole into the lake floor. And, due to its hydraulic pump, it is silent.
This device anchors the vessel to its mooring by inserting a pole into the lake floor. And so, when it is retrieved, there's no mess. It is clean. The pump does all the work- at the push of a button.
Another advantage of this anchor can be understood, historically; when most people think of an anchor, there's lots of rope involved. After it sits in the silt of a lake bottom, for awhile, the fisherman hauls it in with lots of extra stuff, like lily pads, mud, and the like. Power Pole is patented technology that is clean, and does not involve any detritus from the ocean floor. Therefore, it makes less of a mess, and even helps avoid injurious fall caused by a wet, muddy boat floor.
In conclusion, this device is a good idea for the eager outdoor and fishing enthusiast. It is placed near the back of the boat, right next to the outboard motor, at around the waterline level. The Ever Flex is offered in three different sizes, and five various and assorted colors. It also is offered in three different series, and a variety of accessories that are optional, one of which is a remote control. It is an interesting example of innovative cutting edge technology.
