Avid Carp Lok Down Bucket Stand - Tackle Tuesday

This entry was posted on 4th August, 2020

Many carp anglers will agree that in recent years spodding has become hugely popular! Spodding gets all the carp interested in your swim and before you know it the battle of landing a great carp in the net begins! 

What is spodding?

For those unsure, spodding is the act of casting out large quantities of bait that will create a bed of free offerings that surround your hookbait and hold the carp in the area. This is a great method to speed up interest and requires plenty of tasty carp bait prepared and ready to go with you right by the bankside.

The problem some carp anglers have found is the hauling of kilo after kilo of bait out to the horizon which takes its toll after a while and tires you out before the real action has even begun! Not to worry though as Avid Carp has introduced the Lok Down Bucket Stand to aid this process.

Both the frame and the legs of the stand are thicker than its predecessor and result in a sturdier Bucket Stand, another welcome addition is the inclusion of the Lok Down cam system on the adjustable legs, instead of applying pressure to just a single point on the insert pole, the Avid Carp cam lock wraps around the circumference of the inserting pole. This design provides substantially more hold and results in the legs being immovable, certainly by hand.

Built into the stand is a compact foam rest, ergonomically designed to cradle your spod rod whilst re-baiting your spod, bringing your spod bucket up to waist height and providing a nearby rod rest will considerably ease the toll taken on your body whilst spodding kilo upon kilo of bait out. The same can be said when using a throwing stick, you will be surprised at how much of a difference having your boilies to hand will make to your form and muscle memory.
