Carp care should be high on all carp anglers priority list. With that in mind we have two new ultra protection unhooking mats. First up we have the Nash Carp Cradle, which in reality is not a mat as the padded mat is held off the ground by an easily assembled metal cradle. If you look at the photo’s below you will get an idea of how it works. I used a similar product years ago when fishing Orchid Lakes and they really work well. The Nash Carp Cradle is definitely up there for ultimate carp care. For more information or to purchase follow the above link to the main site.

Another cracking more traditional unhooking mat is the Wychwood Epic Safeguard Unhooking Mat. This has a sculptured 90mm foam inner and a decent padded kneeling mat. The Epic Mat has a full length fish cover to stop the fishing getting out of the mat should you need to step away to get a camera etc. For convience the Epic folds in half and is stored in its own dedicated carry bag. The Wychwood Epic Safeguard Unhooking Mat is also up there in the carp protection stakes. For more information or to purchase follow the above link to the main site.
