Salt Tripod

At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

Salt Tripod

#1 Post by contender »

Recently bought a new tripod from the SALT range, and after using it i can say that it was money well spent. It seems well made and pretty stable when in use. I have my eye on a few other things in the salt range and most look good value, seems shakespeare have got it right with this stuff.

We were discussing the bucket for keeping fish alive on another thread. Do you think it would work for that? I thought it might be a bit on the small side ... (maybe I'm being optimistic :D)

it is small lads...holds bait fine tho...i cant post pics, problem here...i dont think it would be suitable for keeping fish alive for any lenght of time, temporaily it will suffice but in the long run a normal mayo bucket would be bigger,better and prob safer for the fish... i wouldnt reccomend it for fish..but for bait its the bees knees...as it folds down and neat into the tackle box!!

Was looking at the SALT tripod myself. Looks like a cracking piece of kit and it comes in its own bag to help transport issues. My only concern was although very stable it did weight quite a bit if you were to carry it for any distance.

All in all for somewhere you don't need to walk very far or for fishing over rock make it will certainly do the business.

Another good bit of kit from the SALT range.
