Minn Kota Talon Anchoring System A Whole New Level Above Competitors
Minn Kota has launched a new shallow water pole or spike anchor that improves on existing products in the class. In contrast to competing brands, the Minn Kota Talon anchoring system uses an electro-mechanical design, not hydraulics. MK claims this is a powerful differentiator since it makes its product lighter, easier to install, more durable, quicker to deploy with stronger holding power. Cabelas Talon anchoring system is supplied with a full 2 year manufacturers warranty.
Shallow water anglers will be familiar with pole anchors. They have been marketed for many years now. Thousands of systems have been purchased by satisfied anglers around the globe. They are a well-proven product based on a solid concept that has been tried and tested. Overall, the MK product claims superior performance compared to existing competitors.
The MK Talon allows anglers to quickly and silently anchor their boat exactly where fish are biting, without spooking them. And without a dirty anchor messing up the boat. Anglers can fish productively without wasting time fumbling with an anchor.
The MK anchor product provides new capabilities not supplied with other pole anchors. Perhaps the most important new feature is the automatic Up-Down Pole control capability. This is a rapid one-touch button press action that initiates a totally automatic start-to-end deployment routine. It avoids any need to continuously hold a button until the pole anchor is fully deployed.
Retrieving the anchor is just as simple. A one-touch push reverses the process. The MK anchor is operated from either a fixed control panel or a pocket-sized wireless remote pad.
Importantly, the MK anchor product provides ultra-secure holding power when deployed, the strongest holding in its class. The exclusive MK auto drive capability drives the spike deep into the bottom using a trio of three successive drives. Each individual drive is powered by a progressively stronger force. This three-hit driving procedure buries the spike deeper with more holding power than any other pole anchor product.
A set of LED indicator light panel that estimates, in one-foot intervals, the depth to which the anchor has been deployed. As a safety feature, an alarm warns the skipper if the outboard engine is started while the pole remains deployed.
Because it does not rely on hydraulics, the Minn Kota Talon anchoring system is usually simpler and less costly to install on a boat. It has a small footprint and needs less space volumetrically for installation and operation. This movement flexibility, vertically and back-front (30 degrees) permits the product to be installed on any boat configuration without modifications. When not in use, the lightweight MK product can be easily removed from a boat using a Quick Release Bracket that comes as standard. Cabelas, the leading outdoor equipment supplier, stocks Kinn Mota trolling motors Talon anchoring system and many more KM products.
