Being a bit of a tight ass but I think £30 for a barrow bucket holder is taking the P so I'm wondering if there are alternate methods/products?

I tend to take the kitchen sink, and three buckets, which I put on the handles and I'm sure there must be a better way to avoid damaging the handles.

Carp Porter used to make these, as did BCUK. There were other eBay sellers who made them too and they were half the price of the above. Might be worth a nosey on FB I bet someone's still making them or can do

I use these, they only fit <23mm square tube but will support a 5 litre water bottle fine. I usually hang them inline with the front wheel centre line to reduce the apparent weigh on the barrow, You may be able to find them cheaper elsewhere

Ive one of the nash bucket holders and think its a great idea and have it over the front of my barrow - yes its expensive but I think its worth it - though the link below does look like it could well do the same thing

Crap photo but I put bungee hooks on my water bottle and would work for bait buckets

A perfectly well thought out and practical solution using cheap readily available parts or even re- using old knackered bits - excellent

However todays modern carper wouldn't be seen dead with any item which didn't begin with K or wasn't accompanied by frenzied media hype and a price tag of a small non electric saloon car. Home made gear for many is only to be looked down on as a pathetic attempt by the poor and needy to enter an expensive sport, regardless of the many years ( much longer than the illumerati) that you may have spent identifying gaps in the tackle trade and overcome them. Sadly your innovation will fall on many deaf ears ( as have my own).

If it isn't packed in plastic, costs a fortune and is making someone a fortune from a ‘hobby' then they don't want to know.

I saw your original post and copied it a while back. Pers9nally I thought it was spot on 👍👍👍👍

Right place, right time! As I've been looking earlier in the week for something that will fit on my carp Porter and carry the ridgemonkey 5L cans.

Haven't pulled the trigger on them though... Nb they are £20 each

Another option might be these
