I have a single Talon. I don't use it that often with spot-lock. It is very handy at the dock or if I am retying or just taking a break. I use spot-lock alone much more frequently than the Talon for fishing since I don't hold position that long in any one place. Plus, my Talon is a 12'er so depth limits how often I use it. Usually, if I am using my Talon to hold my spot for fishing, I will play the wind so when the boat swings around (1 Talon), I will be in the correct position. I do this more often than put the Talon down and then using spot-lock to keep the bow locked in one spot. While the Talon is handy, if I was buying a boat and needed to watch the bottom line, it would be one of the first things I didn't add. Before spot-lock I used my Talon much more often and except for holding the boat at the dock, spot-lock can do anything a Talon can. Hope it helps. |
