I use a folding wade staff as a stake out poll in my anchor trolly.  I use my paddle that stays across my lap to position.  Often I sit on top of lilly pads.

I have anchor trolleys on the port and starboard sides on both my Lures and use a 5 pound claw anchor.   I choose which side to anchor from depending on wind direction and what shoreline I'm fishing.

Thanks, DB. I debated 1 or 2 trolleys. Starting with one and will see how that works. Hoping I can afix my one to both the bow and stern, right at the very end so.
