If this boat will do the same I will sell the talons and go to pp thanks in advance

    Might I suggest adding weight to the front of your boat if you come across that problem with either talons or poles. I know so many people want to keep the heavy baits in the back storage but I like them up front. I think the gman shares my philosophy if I am not mistaken.

    I know not the answer you were looking for. Only had poles on my 520

    Thanks for your answer so there's no 520 owners with talons?

    if it is propped correctly, it isn't an issue with talons
