What would you class as mega expensive?
I use the Trakker XL retention sling and can't fault it.

The trakker ones take some beating in xl version, very similar to the Sonik....

Deffo the Trakker XL. A good £50.00 worth when I bought it 2 seasons ago.

Are carp sacks banned or just a faff to use?

Yeh a lot of places have banned sacks for good reason

These new retention slings are a world away from the old sacks that we used

I like the way you can get your fish still in your net into these tupe of slings then lift them out, really good

Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
