Unhooking Mats-whats good??

Tee-Cee · Oct 8, 2009

I want a quality mat with the prime concern being the fishes well-being.

Fish size-NOT more than 20/25lb carp so nothing too massive as its something else to carry!

Drying out-some I've seen take forever to dry out-are any available that dry fairly quickly as it needs to go in the car boot......?

Carry Handles/Carry bag-I suppose they all have them but some better than others??

Cost-not an issue for the right animal....

I want it to last!!

Apologies if this has been raised before!!

Not massive but the perfect size you might be looking for...

Bung an old blanket/sheet in the boot of you're car.

I use to own the Korum unhooking mat listed above, IMO its too small for fish the size you mention more of a match fishing mat.

I have the Trakker Armo Protekta XL, 48" x 28" with polysyrene balls inside for padding. This retails around £50.00 and well worth the money.

Thanks, Darren.

The standard Korum unhooking mat is small.,That why I suggested the XL. 118cm x 85cm

I do apologise, the smaller version was a good mat wish i would of known of the larger size.

I have the small mat, like you say, good for smaller fish. I also have The Chub compact for larger carp.

I did have the JRC mega mat once. But it was to big for what I needed.
3rd one down. Still a bargain at 27 quid....
