powerpole without a doubt, I would be po'd every time I had to take the talons off or adjust to get under bridges, in my garage, etc.. Plus they r top heavy. I did all the research when I got my dual PP's. Was an easy choice. I love mine and wouldnt trade them for nuthin!

Come on now, don't you thInk Minn Kota will give the guys running their other products I.e. TM & Chargers free Talons if the fisherman wanted them.. Uh Yes.. 95% of pros and fisherman want the best, so they get the Power-Pole, the best!

If you knew the product all you needed was to pull one line of the pump, that releives the pressure then just pull it up and tie it up.

I give correct info bud, since I worked at a #1 boat dealership for over a year, and had alot of questions I had to have answers. I also know a few guys who ran them, untill they lost them in lakes or highways.. Then they started loosing stakes from the inside..

And I am sponsored by Power-Pole, so what.. Just giving Facts!

PP and Talon need to give me two each and I will test them both and keep the one that is the better product. I wonder if they are both up to the challenge???

I have one PP now, they should give me one to test also , since I am on the water 3-5 days a week.. lol

Yeah I dont want to get just one and when you are a poor boy fisherman with a baby on the way its hard to drop the cash for two.

We knew the product. Pulled the line and it still wouldn't come up. Turns out, the piston was bent, so there is no way that the thing was coming up, regardless of what we would have done to it. Bent piston = pull the whole thing off of the mount and put it on the back deck. Bent piston also = BIG MONEY TO FIX.

You don't give correct info if you tell people "You can't lower Talons unless you take em off..." That's false. The quick release handles allow you to adjust the Talons vertically.
And when you keep throwing out information about them falling off, you're talking about past history. Those issues have been fixed a long time ago. Why do you refuse to recognize that ??

So YES YOU DO GIVE FALSE INFO CODY MALONE.


People do not like salesman that bash the competition. It makes them think that the basher is either hiding something or trying to make up for having an inferior product. Your product should be able to stand on IT'S own merits. Sell it based on that.

I haven't bashed any product.. Just stating facts, and their problems were not to long ago, they have only been out a little over a year..

The Power-Pole is by far the best choice regardless..

I prefer the Stick-it Anchor Pins....

Darn cell double posted..

About these "facts" that you are stating. You said that you have to take the talon off in order to lower it ?

You still saying that is a "fact" ???

You didn't have correct info on lowering a Talon. Any time you want to walk across the field back of DSM I will show you a Talon can be raised and lowered without taking it off.

I wish I could be 100% correct on everything i say or do.. sometimes i am wrong. so sue me.. I have edited my original post. I also believe the quick release is 60-80.. correct?

If you are always right,Good for you

I don't remember what I payed Steve for ot but it was not 60 or 80.

There it is. A backhanded apology if I've ever seen one. Why not just be a man and admit you were wrong instead of droning on and on about someone else always being right, sue me, etc .... ???

A simple, "I was wrong" will suffice. The other stuff is just nonsense. Geez dude, come on.
