Product Information

Full details

The Cult Tackle Floatation Retainer Sling is designed for serious carp anglers who prioritize fish safety during short-term retention and weighing. It provides a secure, buoyant environment for fish, though its XL dimensions mean it is best suited for larger specimens and may be cumbersome for those fishing on very tight, overgrown bankside swims.

FAQs

What are the dimensions of this sling?

The Cult Tackle Floatation Retainer Sling measures 120cm x 70cm.

Is the material safe for fish?

Yes, the sling is constructed from soft, fish-friendly mesh designed to protect the slime coating of carp.

How should I clean the stink sleeve?

Rinse the sleeve with cold water and allow it to air dry in the shade.

Can I use this for long-term storage of fish?

No, this sling is intended for short-term retention and weighing only. Always monitor the fish closely while it is inside.

Does it come with a storage bag?

Yes, it includes a lightweight stink sleeve specifically designed for convenient storage and transport.

Troubleshooting

Sling feels heavy after removing from the water

Ensure that the fish is positioned correctly to allow the mesh to drain properly. Avoid lifting the sling in a way that traps water in the folds.

Retainer cord is difficult to deploy

Check the Velcro pouch for debris or grit. Clean the Velcro strips and ensure the cord is coiled loosely to prevent internal knots.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly durable construction designed for long-term use
  • Excellent buoyancy for safer fish retention
  • Fast-draining mesh reduces weight during the weighing process
  • Includes convenient stink sleeve for clean storage
  • Fish-friendly materials minimize risk to the catch

Cons

  • Large footprint may be difficult to manage in small, restricted swims
  • Requires proper drying time to prevent long-term odors
  • Larger size means it occupies more space in your tackle bag

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the sling, ensure the side floats are fully extended and the retainer cord is securely anchored to a bank stick or sturdy point on the bank. Never secure the cord to a tree or object that could easily move. After each session, rinse the mesh thoroughly with lake water to remove debris and slime. It is essential to allow the sling to dry completely before placing it inside the included stink sleeve to prevent mold or bacterial growth. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the synthetic materials.
