Yeah? Try that along the edges of the ICW, when you are trying to anchor
as quietly as possible so you can sneak a bait up to tailing redfish 20
yards away. Oh, wait...you can't *do* that with that barge of an
floating RV of yours...you'd run hard aground. Too bad.

You should get a "power pole". It will stick you pretty much instantly
and very quietly. It is good up to 6 or 8 feet of water. Your tailing
red fish will be an knee/ankle deep water anyway

Sigh. I don't fish along the Florida ICW anymore. I live in Maryland. We
don't have many tailing redfish up here.

A buddy in Florida tells me the power poles are fine in fairly still
water, but if there is a significant current or wind, they don't hold well..

What he told you was bull****, then. They hold extremely well.
