Designed for the carp fishing angler, the Nash Retainer Sling is a carp retention sling that combines fish safety, ergonomics for the angler and ease of transport. Its full-mesh construction reduces weight, improves water circulation and allows quick drying after each session. Thanks to floating elements placed along its entire length, it remains perfectly visible and stable on the surface, making it easy to constantly monitor the carp while waiting for weighing or photos.
This retention sling has been designed for carp anglers who practice no-kill and want to minimize stress on the fish. The full mesh allows water to flow continuously around the carp, providing good oxygenation during the short period before weighing or photographing. The fish remains supported along its entire body in a natural position, reducing the risk of injury.
The wide buoyancy makes the retention sling particularly reassuring: it stays well on the surface and visible at all times, even at night, thanks to the reflective markers. The angler can instantly locate the sling and check the carp's condition without having to pull on the cord. The set forms a complete carp angling kit, ready to be attached to a bankstick to secure the fish while preparing the landing mat, tripod and scale.
The metal eyelets dedicated to weighing provide an accurate measurement without excessive handling. By simply attaching the hook points to the scale, the angler reduces unnecessary movements and gains speed. The sling's low weight also makes it easier to tare the scale, which is essential for a reliable measure of large carp.
Before placing a fish inside, always wet the carp retention sling to avoid any abrasion of the mesh on the fish's skin. Gently place the carp in the sling while supporting its entire body, then carefully close the safety systems provided.
Install the sling in sufficiently deep water so the carp can remain vertical and submerged, away from obstacles and banks. Attach the retention cord to a sturdy bankstick using the provided attachment system, leaving a little slack so the sling follows water movement without getting stuck. Regularly monitor the fish's condition and minimize retention time: this is a temporary solution intended only for the time needed to prepare the weighing or photography equipment.
After use, rinse the sling with clean water to remove mud and mucus, then let it dry completely in the shade before storing. Regular maintenance preserves the flexibility of the mesh and extends the life of this carp accessory. Also check the condition of seams, eyelets and retention cord before each session.
Question 1 : Can I use this retention sling to weigh the carp directly?
Answer: Yes, this model is also designed to serve as a weighing sling. Simply wet the sling, correctly tare the scale using the metal eyelets, then place the carp inside while supporting its body. Limit retention time to the strict minimum and never transport the fish long distances out of the water inside the sling to best preserve its health.
