Korda Basix Green Carp Fishing Cradle KBX028

Product Information

No need for a pump either, because this cradle inflates in seconds, leaving you with no bulky item to carry along with you on the water or drive home with. Being a ‘crib’ design, you get the obvious benefit of this cradle being elevated off the floor. This is particularly helpful on gravel or wooden platform swims. The whole thing is built upon a strong, yet lightweight frame. This clever design has been created with both angler and carp in mind, with 210Denier soft-touch PVC fabric for water drainage plus extra strong and safe frame padding to protect the carp.

Throughout the centre of the cradle, the same PVC fish friendly material has been used. It sort of moulds to the carps body shape, providing a safe haven during the unhooking process. This padded, 50mm, foam-lined cradle protects fish from bumps and bruises, while the waterproof outer layer keeps them from getting wet. The cushioned protection, elasticated retention strap and padding for your knees means there’s never been a better way to safely prepare your carp for weighing or taking memorable photos of your carp. Similar to the Saber cradle, the Sanctuary folds down for easy transportation. It’s not the smallest item to carry, but we are talking about the ultimate in fish care here.Features include a mesh base so water can drain away as you keep the fish calm by pouring water over its gill areas.

Pop up cradles have been growing in popularity in recent years, so we wanted to feature one on this guide. Plus, it’s easy to carry with handy carry handles. Folding design makes it easy to store when not in use. What we like most about this Trakker cradle is the removable cover. Unlike other cradles where the material is fully attached to the frame, Trakkers is removable. This provides a number of benefits: This cradle is in competition with the likes of the Dwarf Sling Mat and the Scope Flat Unhooking Mat. Neither of these have any side protection for the carp and that’s where the ESP wins hands down.Consumer credit service provided by Klarna.

It’s fully waterproof and should aid in drying the cradle out after a session. This is always a plus from us it helps to prevent the spread of KHV amongst fisheries. The Basix Carp Cradle has been designed to offer maximum protection to your catch when it is on the bank, whilst remaining practical to use and carry. It is made from 50mm padded foam which provides plenty of cushioning for the fish, with a waterproof outer layer that is super fish friendly and wont remove the fish’s protective slime.

Each leg can be adjusted to suit terrain that is uneven, so keeping it level further ensures fish safety and water drains efficiently as you unhook and prepare to weigh. Height adjustable of 30-40cm tall, by 65 cm wide, offers plenty of room for your catch. A bag is also included to make storage easier.
