I have the Fox XL unhooking matt , i think its now called "Fox Easy Matt" now , its good but only really for fish in the low 20s, IMO
I also have a shimano matt with sides ,larger than the my Fox XL ,very similar to the Fox carpmaster deluxe , which is great for Larger fish.
The sides dont squash down on the Shimano like the Fox XL does if the fish flips.
I have never liked Cradles at least the ones i have seen .
