Carp Care

If there is one item of tackle that should be considered the most important of them all, it would have to be the unhooking mat. Having invested so much time in pursuit of a carp, it is absolutely the right thing to do to care for your landed fish to the very best of your ability. Fortunately there is a fantastic choice of luxurious mats currently on the market, and one that absolutely ticks many fish care boxes is Trakker’s premium Sanctuary MF Flat Mat. 

Measuring a whopping 118cm in length and 78cm in width, the user can comfortably unhook the largest of carp with plenty of room to spare. There is also a generous 12cm of total padding, which consists of the unique memory foam cube layer and the 40mm foam base layer. This innovative design allows anglers to tailor the MF Flat Mat depending on conditions and the environment in which it is being used in. By manipulating the foam cubes, you can create an even spread of memory foam, a thicker middle for a more condensed platform or a thicker perimeter to help control a lively catch.Alternatively, you may wish to sacrifice the outer layer of the unhooking mat and instead used the unzipped section as a retention cover to calm fish during the unhooking and photography process. Your knees will also be cared for with the removable kneel mat, which is most useful on hard grounds, and doubles up as a handy storage pouch to keep carp care kits, scales and other likely items to hand. 

Constructed from a mix of polyester and polyurethane mix, the MF Flat Mat makes use of the most fish friendly surfaces available, to ensure your catch returns to the water in the same condition as when it was removed.The installation of a carry handle and respective clip closure makes for effective transportation of large specimens, whilst pegging points are brilliant at keeping your unhooking mat fixed in one location. This is great when fishing long sessions when plenty of bites are expected, whilst also ideal to utilise when adverse weather conditions are forecast, where you wish to keep your tackle from blowing away! 

Finished in Trakker’s bespoke camo finish, the MF Flat Mat not only looks the part but it performs like the proverbial dream.
