    Default Extend your Power-Pole and anchor deeper!


    I've found that I can't anchor anywhere in these Central Florida lakes. They are just too deep for my 8' Power-Pole. I researched ways to extend it, but only found one option and it was $150. I spent around $20 for parts at Lowes and this is what I came up with. It works great and was super easy.

    I made a Youtube video to show how I did it. I hope someone finds this useful!

    It's just a fiberglass pole with a handle. There are several companies selling them. Power-pole has one, Stickit, Wang, and others. This one was made by a friend of mine years ago.

    Just don't forget to take it off if you have any bridges to go under.
