I'm looking for a new unhooking matt. It has to be one with the padded sides so fish can't slide out of it. As a rule on my club we have to have one. I've got a chubb one at moment. Apart from the zips that seem to always break and don't seem strong enough it's a decent size and the padding not bad. But I've now had 3 of these chubb ones and the zips have broken on all of them . So what ones do you guys go for ? The gardener ones I don't like the look of as to small and the fox pop up style type I don't like the look of. The matt has to be a decent size and we'll padded. Got up to about £80 to £100 to spend on one

Not shore what one it is. It packs up into a square type carrier bag. Few of the guys on my lakes have them and thay just seem to small for what I need. Not saying thay are rubbish but just need something bigger

I looked at the avid ones on I think ebay. Looked good mates. Fot thay where asking £199 for the xxl size. Would that be a miss print ? As seemed a lot of money

How do the sides of the forge one hold up over time compared to the fox one?

At the moment both are holding strong. I've got the forge tackle, my mate the fox one 😉

Chub Xtra Protection Cradle if you can get one but got a horrible feeling they have been discontinued.
