Occasionally I see a video or even pictures where a person has straps on the shallow anchors.
is this for trailering or what would they be used for?
and where do you get them

I use mine when trailering to keep them tighter and try and help with wear in the bushings. It also keeps them from deploying if something was to happen to a hose or fitting. I got mine from Rich @ Hydrilla Gear.

I use them to keep poles tight when trailering. Hook into transom eyes & loop around each pole. Definatly helps keep them from flopping much more than using travel covers alone . Just get 1" ratchet straps from almost anywhere & if too long, just cut off excess that you don't need. 6 foot long should be all you need, 1 each side.
Power pole makes straps that are much easier to useOriginally Posted by Fishshooter
use a cover keeps them nicer looking and keeps them from accidentally deploying also

I had one partially deploy traveling home. Secured with rope. Afterwards I went to Ace Hardware and purchased some Velcro straps. They are sold in a variety of sizes.
I seen the travel straps on their website. How I'm using ratchet straps hooked to transom eyes pulls blades tight where the arms pivot on the knuckle eliminating any side to side play as well.
Use a cover when traveling a decent distance.
I use Tuff Skinz covers, they have a strap built in.
A rubber bungee wrapped around twice and hooked into a hole on the poles. Five seconds either on or off that doesn't scratch, keeps them secure, and costs a few dollars. Really no need to overthink it.
