Cotswold Aquarius Pike Roll Up Cradle Mat Woodland Camo
5 Things To Know
- At 58in x 26in laid flat, it gives you the length to safely handle a long pike, not just a chunky carp, so a big fish lies fully supported while you sort the trace.
- Folded into cradle mode it measures 46in x 14in x 6in, and that narrower walled area keeps a thrashing predator contained while you slip the hooks out.
- Drawstring foam walls held by cord locks pull up into sides on demand, so you get proper containment without carting a rigid framed cradle round the bank.
- A wipe-clean fish-friendly inner over a thick soft foam layer cushions the fish off hard or uneven ground and rinses down at the end of the session.
- Three pegging points, webbing handles and a roll-up design with shoulder strap mean it pegs down in the wind and rolls up small for roving sessions along rivers, drains and fens.
Product Information
The Cotswold Aquarius Pike Roll Up Cradle Mat in Woodland Camo is a predator fish-care mat for anglers who need length, containment and easy transport. It is designed primarily for pike, while the narrow cradle shape can also suit zander and eel handling.
The mat can be used flat or converted into a cradle-style format. Drawstring foam walls are held in place with cord locks, giving the fish more side support than a plain roll mat when it is being unhooked or photographed.
A fish-friendly wipe-clean inner sits over a thick layer of soft foam. The outer material is hardwearing, helping the mat cope with rough banks, damp grass and repeated rolling in and out through the season.
Webbing handles on either side allow careful lifting and carrying, while three pegging points help secure the mat in windy conditions. The mat rolls up compactly, with a webbing carry handle and adjustable shoulder strap for mobile sessions between swims.
Flat dimensions are 58in x 26in, or 1480mm x 660mm. In cradle format it measures 46in x 14in x 6in, or 1170mm x 360mm x 150mm, giving a long but restricted handling area for large pike or other predators on awkward banks.
