A carp landing mat or cradle is an essential tool for handling carp safely while unhooking and weighing. Carp mats and cradles reduce stress and prevent injuries to your catches, supporting ethical angling. Shop now.
Both tools act as a surface for protecting fish during unhooking and weighing. Ideal for larger carp, cradles have sturdy frames and raised sides for holding fish securely in place. Mats are more lightweight and portable, providing anglers with a padded surface that can be carried on the go.
Choosing the Right Carp Unhooking Mat or Cradle
It’s important to choose a mat or cradle with the right features. For demanding environments, look for mats and cradles made from rugged, waterproof materials. If you’re regularly on the move, make sure the mat or cradle is large enough to hold a large carp but still compact and lightweight enough to travel with. Finally, choose materials that are easy to clean and maintain for longevity.
