Affordable fold up fishing cart.

Post by Marty.A » Sun May 07, 2017 5:50 pm

Hi All

Since not having much time to fish lately due to my dads health issues I found some time to make things easier for me when I finally get the chance.
I found this fold up cart on Ebay for $54.99 posted and added a few mods to it and it come up really well. As I'm primarily land based it has solved the problem of carrying all my gear around and it being a fold up it doesn't take up too much room in the car and can handle all my gear for a days fishing.
The Ebay link is posted below, the only upgrade to do next is find some pneumatic wheels and its all finished.

Cheers
Marty

Handy for some, :thumbsup: cheers davo
It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish
But it's an even better feeling releasing them

Nice... But I reckon you're taking too much stuff if you need a cart! :-)

Lol :rofl: True but some of the lakes I fish I need to walk a fair way from the car to get to the better spots and we usually fish the whole day so that's the main reason I decided to get it ,most of the time its just a couple of rods and a backpack.

Great idea Marty.

I'm also having some health issues, namely osteo arthritis, which I have in my knees and foot.

Walking for any distance is painful, more so if I'm carrying my gear.

I have an old, unused now, electric golf buggy in my shed. Tou've given me the idea to drag it out and convert it into a tackle carrier. Being battery operated it'll mean that all I'll have to do is switch it on and follow it!

Once I've done the conversion I'll post a photo.
