The_Viking_Angler Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Hey Guys, I'm hoping to fish the canal/stalk alot more this year and i was just wondering what you guys use mat/cradle wise to stay mobile. I have a cradle but it's a pain to carry along with a rod/net/buckets ect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this answers your own question mate, staying mobile would be mat only for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonny Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Same here, a nice big mat folded in two and carried on straps makes a lovely receptacle for stalking gear/tackle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Viking_Angler Posted April 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Thanks Lads, Was just curious of other peoples opinions. I have a big Daiwa beany mat somewhere which i think i'll start using again for stalking. I'll see if i can find it. yonny and spr1985 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharpy86 Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Aqua combi mat folds in half and has a nice shoulder carry handle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud9 Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 I'm surprised that no one's come up with an inflatable mat for stalking, it could be pumped up with a small bike pump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salokcinnodrog Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 Chub Beanie Mat. Shop around as there are deals about as I think they have just squared the corners on the new ones. I use mine for carp, pike, roach, tench and chub fishing where I am roving along various spots. It has a carry handle, and the pegging points attach to straps to my Ruckbag.

jh92 Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 The fox easy mat looks pretty compact when packed away...thats judging by the pictures anyway lol. I've got one of them small roll up mats for stalking but feel guilty putting fish on it so I end up taking a giant cradle 😂😂 B.C. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
