Been wanting power poles to put on back of boat. Why can't they make a forked version of a single power pole instead of having to buy two? Damn things are expensive!

I'm for developing this technology. I've wondered the same too.

Hydraulics? check
Electrical? check
Fork? check

Done.

To be honest, I see people use them more at landings than I do actually fishing on a spot or point. I always questioned are they even worth having, besides it looks good!

I would rather an Ultrex than PP or talons these days.

I have 2 Talons; IMO Talons are much better than PP but Talons do cost more

I'd get 360 imaging on both ends of the boat and a new imaging chart first before I blew money on power poles. Just my three pennies.

When I bought my boat it had two power poles. I told myself I'd sell one and put the money back into the boat... Then I went fishing and used both poles. It's amazing. Now I have the I-Pilot to top it off. I would think if you have 1 pole and i-pilot you could hold your place pretty well but pushing a button is nice.

My PPs act up a little bit. Had hydraulic hose blow on one and circuit board act up on another. Guess I need to call them for some good customer service.
