ELECTRIC anchor spikes have become the latest “must have” accessory for tournament anglers. Basically, these nifty gadgets are an electric spike that deploys down and drives into the bottom to hold your boat in position while you fish.
Minn Kota’s Talon is a shallow water spike anchor system designed to quickly and quietly stop and position your boat in depths down to 12ft – whether you’re fishing saltwater or freshwater, the Talon is the ultimate holding device for stealth fishing.
Operating from the boat’s existing battery setup, the Talon vertically deploys its three-stage telescopic spike with the wireless remote and without the fish-spooking noise of a traditional anchor. (See diagram below)
When not in use, the lightweight Talon can be taken off the boat thanks to its standard release bracket or folded away for garaging with the optional tilt bracket. It’s electro-mechanical, cable-driven design, is easy to install with minimal wiring and rigging.
Made of marine-grade extruded anodised aluminium, the Talon can withstand a harsh corrosive saltwater environment, and the indestructible spike, made with fibreglass reinforced composite material, is guaranteed for life.
