Rope at the landing = $10.00, anchor lock TM built in ... Talons to get in your way = why? i see it with bass fishermen, but let's say you are going to troll or go salmon fishing or have a big fish in the back bulldogging you?

someone forgot the reason that includes they look cool when trailering your boat ...

sorry, but they are as limiting as they are useful ...


For you, maybe, but as far as I can tell you have never had them on your rig. We've had them on the Lund for over a year; have caught dozens of muskies with zero issue. I don't find them to be in the way at all, and wouldn't have a boat without them now. Want to control your trolling/drift speed/tack to the numbers? Power-Pole paddle. Fish to CPR in a big wind? No problem. Lock down on an area and cast to it with zero boat movement? Very nice if you are a multi-specie guy, and I am. As you know I also fish bass and muskies quite a bit in the slop. And for crappie fishing? The bomb.

So I'll pass on the 'cool looking' thing, not what we have them for. If I wanted the boat to look cooler, I'd wrap it.
