[QUOTE="TNGunsmoke, post: 5700493, member: 10346"] We use a chain hoist to pull the poles down into the mud when we place the blind, and when we remove the poles, wrap the chain around the pole a couple of times under the collars we use to hold them, and push it down as far as we can with a boat paddle, and then pull them up, lock in place with a large crescent wrench(positioned above the bottom collar and basically lodged against it), and repeat as necessary until we have the pole up far enough. But this is a blind we leave on the river year round, just when we have to move it to shallower water to do some sort of maintenance we need dry land to do the work. We have two sets of collars on either end of the blind to hold the poles in place, and make sure the poles are long enough to handle summer pool on Ky Lake, plus enough to account for flood stage. And we use one pole on either end of the blind, positioned midway on either end, so we have 2 poles to do this with. [/QUOTE]
