Top 5 Carp Fishing Barrows

As the British summer works through the gears and reaches something resembling the summer, the banks begin to get a little busy, making a barrow almost essential.

Once the Carp have spawned and switched the focus back onto food, it’s one of the best times to get a line in the water and enjoy fishing in the sunshine. However, when the banks are at their busiest it can be hard to find yourself a quiet spot away from the hotspots, which quickly turn barren as the Carp head away from the areas rife with angling pressure. But, clocking up the miles on foot with all of your tackle and bait isn’t the brightest prospect in mid-20-degree heat, so why not take a load off and treat yourself to a brand-new fishing barrow? 

We’ve compiled a list of the best fishing barrows on the market, what makes them so wonderful. Now, the list is in no particular order, and we’ve included both premium and budget options!

Fox have been at the forefront of producing the best quality Carp fishing equipment for many years now, and the Explorer Carp Fishing Barrow is just another example of this. Fox boast that the Explorer is the most versatile barrow on the market, and considering the amount of added extras that you get from the barrow, it’s hard to argue that it doesn’t represent the best value for money either!

The key element of the Fox Explorer Barrow is that the barrow can be adjusted for either short day session or a longer journey with the adjustable bars. The barrow comes with drop in and side bags that are perfect for fishing off of your barrow and keeping on the move to follow carp around the lake throughout the session. There are also a few features of the barrow which make life easier for the angler despite how big or small they seem. Firstly, the spiked mud feet solve a big problem for anglers on smooth ground, along with holding right in muddy patches. The mesh pockets that sit either side of the wheel are also wonderful additions, perfect for bait or essential tackle that you need to lay hands on quickly.
