FAQs

What are the dimensions of the mat?

The mat measures 115cm x 68cm x 5cm, providing a large area suitable for big carp.

Is this mat suitable for airline travel?

Yes, its flat, foldable design makes it relatively easy to pack compared to rigid cradle systems.

Does it come with a carry bag?

The mat features heavy-duty carry handles, but it does not include a separate storage bag.

Can I wash the cover?

The surface is a wipe-clean material. Do not machine wash as this may damage the internal high-density foam structure.

What is the purpose of the beanie topper?

The beanie topper provides an extra layer of soft support that conforms to the shape of the fish, ensuring maximum protection.

Are the storage pouches waterproof?

They are designed for general carp care essentials but are not fully submersible; keep electronics and documents elsewhere.

Troubleshooting

Mat appears dirty or has a fishy smell

Clean thoroughly with warm water and a mild, fish-safe antibacterial wash, then allow it to dry completely before storing.

Velcro flaps are not sticking firmly

Check for debris or dried mud within the hook-and-loop fasteners and use a stiff brush to clear them out.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent fish protection with high-density foam and beanie filling
  • Dedicated kneeling pad adds significant comfort for the angler
  • Built-in storage pouches reduce clutter at the bank
  • Durable, wipe-clean material ensures longevity and hygiene
  • Large surface area accommodates high-weight PBs

Cons

  • Flat mat design does not offer the same enclosure as a framed cradle
  • Takes up more space than compact roll-up mats
  • Lacks external pegging points for windy conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the mat is straightforward: lay it on level ground, ideally away from sharp rocks or debris. To maintain the mat, rinse the base with clean water after every use to prevent odor buildup and the transfer of bacteria between venues. Because of the high-density foam, avoid storing heavy objects on top of the mat for long periods during the off-season, as this can cause permanent compression. The wipe-clean surface is best maintained by air-drying in the shade; avoid direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight which can degrade the outer material over time.
