'DOES NOT HANDLE THE PACE'
Strengths:
at first a good sling with good features such as a pvc lining to protect the fish and comfortable foam carry handles and solid strengthining bars. handled a 70lb cat.
Weaknesses:
after 2 months the pvc came away from the nylon. after 2 years the pvc turned brittle and cracked rendering the sling useless.
Overall:
if you dont fish much it might do. but if like me you fish a lot it will only last about 2 years.

'GOOD SOLID PRODUCT'
Strengths:
a very well made sling,i have used it to transfer carp to mid doubles up and down stepped swims with no problems,the sides are zipped up and using the foam padded carry handles the task is made easy for both angler and fish.with the sling zipped up there is no chance of the fish thrashing its way out,i have also used it to weigh and return several pike.with again no problems.i was really pleased with this sling,well worth the money.
Weaknesses:
the only down side id the material inside the sling must be well wetted,(a standard practice for any angler)also nothing broke yet even with angry carp,thrashing like mad.
Overall:
if you fish for big fish and want a good size sling for cats(uk) or pike or carp look no futher.

all i need now is that thirty pound esox to fill the sling....
