Lugging around the necessary tackle for even a short day session can often prove awkward, problematic and exhausting if you’re restricted to the gear you can carry on your back and in your arms. This is precisely why Angling Direct is proud to put its name to an extensive collection of fishing barrows and trolleys sourced from the industry’s most trusted names that are built for Coarse and Match anglers in mind. We carry an extensive collection of angling barrows and trolleys from Matrix, Preston, MAP and more!
Size
One of the most important things to consider when you’re investing in a top-quality fishing barrow is its size. Our range begins with barrows which give you a base to pack all your luggage onto. The range progresses through to barrows with their own under bags, these are bags that attach to the base of the barrow and hang down behind the front wheel, ideal for the storage of your heaviest gear, including your bait. Finally, we also stock fully adjustable barrows. These have extending sides and an extending front, allowing you to carry more when you need it.
Wheels
Wheels are another hugely important aspect of your barrow purchase and we have a variety of wheel setups available in our barrow range. The standard match fishing trolley will help you to carry your seatbox down to your peg with a two-wheeled setup instead. Like the single-wheeled barrows, these come fitted with two additional legs, to provide stability when the trolley isn’t in motion.
Accessories
Once you’ve got your barrow you want to start looking at the wide range of accessories that we have to offer. Our fishing barrow and trolley accessories provide you with additional storage space on your barrow. Panniers, or side bags allow you to hang tackle from the side of your barrow as well as stacking it on top. You will find that some of the panniers we stock have been specially designed with bait storage in mind. Angling Direct also stock a range of bags which have been designed to sit on the front of your barrow. This is the part of the barrow which will likely be angled slightly downwards, so having a sealed bag is imperative.
Motorised
As well as our range of standard barrows, we also stock a range of electric fishing trolleys, These are ideal for the angler who has a lot of gear and who is fed up with struggling over rough terrain. We also stock power converter packs, which allow you to transform your standard barrow into a fully motorised machine.
When it comes to coarse and match fishing, getting to your chosen swim easily and conveniently helps set you up for a fantastic session? Lugging around the necessary tackle for even a match or short coarse session can often prove awkward, problematic and exhausting. This is where fishing barrows and trolleys come in.
What Do I Need to Look for in a Match Fishing Barrow?
When you’re looking for the perfect fishing barrow or trolley for your needs, there are a couple of things you might want to keep in mind. First is the size of the barrow, making sure it's small enough to fit in the car but big enough to fit your items such as a seat box, rod holdalls, pole rollers and more. Check the wheels on the barrow or trolley for the terrain you fish at, the barrow handles, if it's motorised and what barrow luggage or covers are available with it; either included or sold separately.
