Our poles are made of 3/4" thick, solid, resin-injected fiberglass, the tip is tapered to a point for easy bottom penetration.

For boats up to 21 feet or 3500 lbs, we suggest using any of our poles. For boats up to 24 feet, we recommend the shorter 6’-8’ poles. Shorter poles offer increased stiffness and tensile strength. They also enhance performance in shallower waters. To illustrate, consider a new full pencil: it's easier to break when full-length compared to a stub, which is harder to break.

That is going to depend on a couple of things, the size of your boat, and what depth of water you will be anchoring in. You will also want to consider the distance from your mount to the water level. Some boats the bow mount will be mounted higher above the water line. Calculate the distance from your mounting point down to the water line and add a foot for sea floor penetration. This will be the depth of water you will aim to use this system. For an easier rule of thumb, take 2’ off each pole size, that will be close to the depth of water you can use that size anchor in. For example, 8’ Poles are generally good in 6’ of water.

This is a loaded question that has many variables. If you are not confident in which mount to select, please reach out to us. Please send photos of your desired mounting location to info@stayputanchor.comand our team will be able to look at them and make a recommendation.

A pole anchor is a long, durable spike designed to anchor boats in shallow waters by penetrating the waterbed. It is versatile and can be mounted on different areas of the boat, like the bow or stern.

Pole anchors are effective in shallow waters and are dependent on the length of the pole.

Yes, anchor poles are manually operated and fixed in place, while power poles are hydraulic or electric for quicker, automatic anchoring.

Yes, stick anchors are effective in holding small to mid-sized boats in shallow waters, providing reliable stability for fishing and other stationary activities.

Anchor poles are designed for boats up to 24 feet and hold well in typical shallow water conditions, though they are not meant for high currents or large vessels.

Pole anchors work best with small fishing boats, kayaks, and skiffs used in shallow water environments like lakes, rivers, and coastal flats.

Pole anchors are best suited for shallow-water fishing and recreation, offering stability in lakes, rivers, and coastal flats. They’re ideal for keeping small boats and kayaks in place while angling or enjoying still water activities.

Pole anchors are generally not ideal for large sailboats due to their limited anchoring depth and power. They work best for small, lightweight vessels in shallow waters. However, smaller sport sailboats and catamarans do work with pole anchors.
