Due to a new club rule , i will need a unhooking mat at 56 inch long x 36 wide .
I have looked on a lot of tackle shops websites but very few give the measurements .
Any ideas ?

Hi Steve ,no mate but they do have a lot of 30s &40s and they have found a lot of members useing small mats so they have come up with this size , a bit over the top i think but rules are rules !

Just buy a Lilo.....
Gives you something comfy to sleep on whilst waiting for a bite as well.
Just don't float out into the middle while dozing.....

Cakey's suggestion isn't big enough, it works out at 49 x 29 inches. You said 56 x 36.

Are you sure it's inches you want Les? That's bigger than a bathroom mat.

I`ve actually used these in France they come in really handy for having a snooze, unhooking carp and servicing ruffe slappers

Thats one HUGE mat, I just got one 122cm by 90cm for catting. used it last week, 17lb pike looked lost on it. sure the club rule was meant to say cms. The cynical side of me thinks someone on the committee has some continental mat to shift.

Crumbs, you use a mat that size in our club and they'll charge you for a double ticket for taking up two swims.
