This weigh sling from the JRC Defender range of fish care products comes with a waterproof carry bag with carry handle, making it ideal for the mobile angler fishing terrain that isn’t particularly barrow-friendly, and relying on a rucksack and their hands to transport all their gear, tackle, and equipment.
Crafted from fish-friendly 210D polyester, this safety sling features reinforced weigh bars, to ensure the fish remains securely in the sling while it is being weighed, and prevent any injuries from a strong, lively fish tipping the sling onto the bank while it’s thrashing around inside, and super strong weigh straps, so you can securely and safely lift that monster of a personal best up to see exactly how much you’ve gained in bragging rights. Fixed around the full perimeter for ultimate strength, the JRC Defender Weigh Sling is designed to offer a weighing experience that’s easy for the angler, and as stress-free as possible for the fish.
Designed to offer easy weighing whilst also being quick drying, this weigh sling, like all JRC products, combines a concern for fish welfare with attention to the needs of anglers. A mesh base guarantees effective drainage, and ensures you get an accurate weight, as the sling is not waterlogged; concern over waterlogged slings resulting in an inaccurate weight have often been cited as a reason for anglers, particularly those actively involved in competitive angling, not using them, but with the attention to detail that is a feature of modern angling equipment design, this issue has been addressed by equipment manufacturers, who ensure that weighing slings have plenty of drainage, to ensure that water weight doesn’t distort the recorded weight, whilst also allowing the fish to remain completely wetted throughout the weighing process.
Now part of the Pure Fishing portfolio, the JRC brand has been built on providing affordable, quality angling equipment to anglers across the spectrum, and consistently exceeding expectations. When it comes to fish care products such as slings, JRC put as much thought into what will make the process easier for the angler as they do into what will be best for the fish, resulting in easy to use, functional products that provide an excellent all-round bankside experience for both fish and angler.
