The Fox Carpmaster Welded Cradle is a framed carp care cradle for anglers who want a raised, water-retaining unhooking station rather than a flat mat. It sits in Fox's Carpmaster fish care range and is aimed at carp sessions where fish protection, stability and easy handling are priorities.
Its support area is suspended away from the ground and kept clear of the surrounding frame. That layout helps keep the fish on a softer central bed while the padded perimeter reduces contact with hard edges during unhooking, weighing preparation or photography.
The fully welded construction is designed to stop water entering the mat material. There are no drainage holes in the support area, so water can be retained in the cradle to keep the fish wet while it is being handled.
Four adjustable spring loaded legs use swivelling mud feet to help the frame settle on uneven banks. The frame height is 30cm and can extend by a further 9cm, giving useful adjustment on rougher pegs or sloping ground.
The cradle measures 126 x 78cm and weighs 6.6kg. It also includes an elasticated camo waterproof cover and a polyester zipped bag, making it a more structured choice for anglers who prioritise fish care over minimal carry weight.
| Feature | What this means |
|---|---|
| Four adjustable spring loaded legs | The leg system helps level the cradle on uneven ground, which is useful on natural banks and worn swims. |
| Swivelling mud feet | The feet spread contact with the ground and help the frame sit more securely on soft or uneven banks. |
| All welded construction | The welded mat construction helps prevent water getting into the mat material during use. |
| No drainage holes in the support area | Water can be kept in the cradle to help keep the fish wet while it is being handled. |
| Padded frame perimeter | Padding around the frame reduces the chance of the fish contacting hard edges. |
| Elasticated camo waterproof cover | The cover helps protect the cradle area when it is set up on the bank. |
| Polyester zipped bag | The supplied bag gives a dedicated way to pack and carry the cradle after the session. |
| 30cm frame height with 9cm extra adjustment | The height range gives useful clearance and adjustment when the ground is not level. |
| 126 x 78cm dimensions | The footprint gives a broad cradle area for carp handling without moving into the largest cradle formats. |
| 6.6kg weight | This is a more structured fish care item, so it suits anglers who accept extra carry weight for a raised cradle setup. |
