Morning all,

Can anyone recommend a good landing net/pole and unhooking mat?

Just starting out, but would like something that will last. Low/Medium budget.

Take a look at the Korum multi mat and fox warrior net and pole, reasonable gear to start with and both can be had very reasonably second hand as well if you prefer

Appreciate the help. The Korum mat was one I was already looking at. Think I will purchase that.
Any thoughts on the Sonik Vader X Landing Nets. Go outdoors seem to have it from £49.99 down to £31.97 at the moment!

Thanks for all the advice. Almost ready to place my orders today now!

However, I can not find the Korum multi mat available anywhere, looks like it has been discontinued.

Can anyone recommend a similar product. Particular looking for the combi that can be used as a unhooking mat and weight sling and then release the fish.

Could this be used to weigh the fish too?

I am really struggling to find the Korum Mat/Sling in stock anywhere due to the fact it has been discontinued.

Does anyone have any recommendations for an alternative?

Any reviews/feedback on;

Saw that earlier and looks very interesting. Will definitely be having a gander when they are launched. Price point isn't extortionate either

I could do with a new mat, like the fox easy mat but can't find them anywhere and don't want to buy a crappy one. Any other recommendations?
