Minn Kota Talon Shallow Water Anchors

Minn Kota Talon Shallow Water Anchors — Electric Vertical Spike

The Minn Kota Talon is the dominant shallow water anchor on freshwater bass boats — and for good reason. Electric deployment, no hydraulic system, One-Boat Network integration with Humminbird and Minn Kota, and the only shallow water anchor available in 12' and 15' models. If you fish freshwater or calm inshore environments and want the simplest, deepest-reaching anchor system available, the Talon is the right choice.
