Power-Pole Report

Power-Pole MOVE Brushless Trolling MotorPower-Pole MOVE Brushless Trolling Motor

Power-Pole introduces a new movement in Total Boat Control with the Power-Pole MOVE Brushless Trolling Motor, the strongest and most advanced trolling motor ever created.

Nearly a decade in the making, the Power-Pole MOVE Brushless Trolling Motor was concepted and constructed from the ground up with a focus on not just improving upon existing offerings but exceeding them in every way. The result is not only the most powerful electric motor available, but also the quietest and most durable trolling motor sportfishing has seen.

The Power-Pole MOVE Brushless Trolling Motor is constructed of the same premium materials and innovation that have made Power-Pole the industry standard Shallow Water Anchors. The technology used in the Next-Gen Brushless Motor and STEALTH STEERING DRIVE are key to the power production, and the operational reliability of the motor.

The motor and steering systems in the Power-Pole MOVE Brushless Trolling Motor are engineered to produce ultimate power while remaining near silent in their operation. The Power Unity System of the brushless motor and reinforced TechflowTM Propeller create 30-percent more power than industry leading trolling motors, all while being whisper quiet in the propulsion and the steering systems.

p>Scum Frog Report

Scum Frog Launch Frog XSScum Frog Launch Frog XS

The new Scum Frog Launch Frog XS offers bass a smaller profile but has the same long distance casting ability as its bigger brother.

The original Launch Frog gained popularity quickly because of how far it would cast. This is a smaller version of that.

The key to the Launch Frog XS’ performance is the unique tungsten “parasite” weight system which adds weight without the bulk to the hook shank. This allows the soft-bodied Launch Frog XS to achieve long casting distances with a smaller body size. Premium frog hooks and its high compression body delivers the highest hook-up rate possible in a hollow body frog.

Northland Tackle Weedless Wacky JigNorthland Tackle Weedless Wacky Jig

Northland Tackle has announced its new Weedless Wacky Jig with its sleek, built-in weighted jig-head to get your bait to where the fish are.

Covering multiple depths and conditions, the new Northland Weedless Wacky Jig comes in 1/16-, 1/8-, and 3/16-ounce options, all featuring a #2 sticky-sharp, premium Gamakatsu hook.

Northland designed the Elite Series Weedless Wacky Jig with two easily-bendable (but almost unbreakable) titanium wire weed guards for penetrating cover.

And when it comes to keeping bass pinned, Northland’s Weedless Wacky Jig design features a wide hook gap and straight eye shank to ensure you can winch bruisers out of the salad and into the boat for a quick photo and release.

In terms of colors, the Weedless Wacky Jig comes in black and green pumpkin.

It’s sold two per card with an suggested retail of $4.99.
