Product Information
Full details
The Aqua Products Buoyant Weigh Sling in DPM Camo is designed for serious carp anglers who prioritize fish care and safety during weigh-ins. This sling offers the key benefit of integrated buoyancy bars, allowing for the temporary, safe retention of fish up to 40lb, though it is primarily a weighing tool rather than a long-term retention system. Crafted from performance-grade Aquatexx material, it ensures rapid drying and long-lasting durability in challenging field conditions.

FAQs
Can I leave fish in this sling overnight?
No, this sling is designed for temporary retention only. It should not be used as a long-term retention system for overnight sessions.
What is the maximum weight this sling can handle?
The sling is rated for fish up to 40lb.
Does the stink sleeve keep odors away?
Yes, it is designed to contain water and fish odors during transit, though it should be washed periodically to remain effective.
How do I clean the Aquatexx fabric?
Rinse with fresh water and use a soft sponge if necessary. Do not machine wash or use abrasive cleaners.
Are the buoyancy bars removable?
The bars are integrated into the design to ensure stability and flotation during use.
Troubleshooting
Sling feels heavy or stays wet for too long
Ensure the sling is being shaken out properly before storage and that the fabric is fully exposed to air during the drying process.
Buoyancy bars feel misaligned
Check the internal sleeves of the sling to ensure the bars have not shifted during transport or storage; readjust them to sit flush within the pockets.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality Aquatexx fabric is very durable and dries quickly
- Buoyancy bars make handling and temporary retention much safer for the fish
- Included stink sleeve is essential for clean transport
- Clear, spacious dimensions accommodate larger carp comfortably
Cons
- Not intended for extended overnight retention
- Weight capacity is capped at 40lb, which may not suit record-breaking specimens
- Requires careful cleaning to maintain the integrity of the specialized fabric
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, ensure the buoyancy bars are correctly seated in their pockets before submerging. When weighing, always ensure the fish is centered to distribute the weight evenly across the sling. Compatibility is universal with most standard angling scales and tripods via the integrated suspension loops.
For care, it is vital to rinse the sling thoroughly with fresh water after every session, especially if used in salt or brackish environments. Allow the sling to air dry completely in the shade before folding it into the provided stink sleeve to prevent mold or mildew growth. Avoid using harsh chemical detergents, as these may degrade the performance-grade Aquatexx material.
