The Wychwood Walled Unhooking Mat is a larger carp and specimen mat for anglers who want high sides, thick padding and a removable inner section. It is aimed at bank-side fish care where a flat mat may not offer enough containment for bigger fish.
The main construction uses fish-friendly materials with 60mm foam. That gives a cushioned base and padded walls for unhooking, weighing preparation and photographs, especially when a fish moves suddenly.
A Velcro-down fish cover is included to help keep the fish darker, calmer and more contained while forceps, scales or camera equipment are sorted. The wipe-clean surface helps with hygiene between sessions and venues, especially after muddy banks or repeated captures.
The removable inner mat gives the product a second role. It can be used without the wall as a lighter stalking-style mat when space and weight matter more than full cradle-style containment during quick short-session work on tight pegs.
The listed open dimensions are 750mm x 1150mm x 250mm, with closed dimensions of 350mm x 350mm x 700mm. For anglers who want one mat to cover bigger carp care, occasional mobile work and simple packing for car or barrow transport, that dual-use construction is the main attraction.
| Feature | What this means |
|---|---|
| Walled unhooking mat design | Raised sides help keep fish contained during unhooking and photographs. |
| 60mm foam | With 60mm foam, the base cushions fish from hard bankside ground. |
| Removable inner mat | Use the centre section separately when a lighter stalking mat is enough. |
| Velcro-down fish cover | A Velcro-down cover keeps the fish darker and calmer while kit is sorted. |
| Padded kneeling area | Padded kneeling space gives the angler a more comfortable working position. |
| Open size: 750mm x 1150mm x 250mm | The 750mm x 1150mm footprint suits larger carp and specimen fish handling. |
| Closed size: 350mm x 350mm x 700mm | Packed dimensions are bulky, but still manageable for car or barrow transport. |
| Easy-clean material | Wipe-clean materials help after contact with water, mud or fish slime. |
