Weighs more than some chairs !

Yeah but fish welfare is paramount.

 

[Neil Partridge]

at laest you could have a bath in it after a few days tramping in a bivvy

 

[Ian Crook]

No need to put your Barbel in a sack or keepnet 'til first light, you could just let them swim around in that

I use a Fox Barbel Mat, it is the perfect size and rolls up super small, one of the best things Fox ever made and they stopped making them just as Barbel fishing was really taking off.........I would have bought another if I thought they were going to discontinue them!!

Like others have said, you don't need anything massive just well padded......

I agree with you mate. The foam inner on mine has begun to move about so a replacement will be needed soon. I believe that Greys now do something similar.

Spot the Carp angler

I still have a large oval carp cradle left over from my carping days. I was thinking of donating it to the Olympic committee...it would have saved £millions by replacing that new aquatic centre

Cheers, Dave.

If you turned it upside down, you could use it as a bivvy
