Carp Protection, Weighing, and Storage
Carp protection, weighing, and storage is a category that includes products needed for the safe handling of fish after catching. Here you will find carp care accessories that help minimize the carp's contact with hard surfaces, facilitate weighing, and allow for short-term and safe storage of the fish in water before photographing, weighing, or releasing. This is an essential part of a carp angler’s gear, especially when fishing according to the catch & release principle.
Safe Carp Handling on the Bank
The foundation of fish protection at the fishing spot are carp mats, which separate the carp’s body from the ground and reduce the risk of injury during unhooking. This group includes various designs, such as flat mats, mats with sides, carp cradles, and inflatable models. The choice of a specific type depends on the fishing method, available space at the spot, and the desired level of fish protection.
Weighing Fish and Equipment Control
This category also includes carp scales and fish weighing stands, which make it easier to weigh large specimens steadily and comfortably. Stands, tripods, and auxiliary holders help safely suspend the scale and the fish bag without the need to lift a heavy carp solely by hand. This is a practical solution for bigger fish, competitions, and situations where precise and repeatable measurements matter.
Bags, Slings, and Fish Disinfectants
For short-term storage, weighing, and transporting fish, there are carp bags, including carp slings with a stiffened structure and soft carp bags without a frame. Complementing this category are fish disinfectants, used to treat hook wounds, minor abrasions, and injuries sustained during the fight. This entire product group supports safe handling of carp so that the fish can return to the water in the best possible condition.
