The Angling Pursuits Eco Unhooking Mat is designed for shore and carp anglers who prioritize fish safety and ethical handling. Measuring 100cm by 60cm, it offers a reliable, cushioned surface to protect catches from hard ground during the unhooking process; however, while it provides excellent portability, it lacks the heavy-duty padded sidewalls found on more expensive cradle-style mats.
The mat measures 100cm by 60cm when fully opened.
Yes, the materials used are designed to be water-resistant and easy to wipe clean.
The product features integrated fold-over straps and elastic retainers which keep it compact, functioning as a portable unit without the need for a separate bulky bag.
It provides a safe surface for handling, but for very large or active carp, ensure you keep a hand on the fish at all times as the mat is flat and lacks raised sides.
Use fresh water to hose it down or wipe it with a damp cloth. Allow it to dry fully before storage.
Ensure the mat is completely air-dried away from direct sunlight before packing it away after your session.
Clear the area of large rocks or sticks before unfolding the mat, or position the mat in a shallow depression in the ground.
Avoid overstretching the retainers when folding; ensure the mat is folded tightly and neatly to maintain the integrity of the straps.
To set up the mat, simply release the elastic retainers and unfold the sections on flat ground near the water's edge. Because of its lightweight nature, you may want to weigh down the corners with a small stone or peg if fishing in high-wind conditions. After use, rinse the mat with fresh water to remove any debris or fish slime. Allow the mat to air dry completely before folding it back up for storage to prevent mildew or unpleasant odors. Always store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods.
