Carp Care Kit

An essential piece of kit for treating injured fish following a capture. Useful for treating a wide variety of wounds and containing 2 products. An ulcer swab antiseptic to clean the area, and a natural antibiotic which when applied over cleaned and dried ulcers forms a protective waxy seal.

Many venues now insist on you carrying one of these with you when fishing.

The full Carp Care Kit consists of 1 Ulcer Swab & 1 Propolis in a Zipped Storage bag

Ulcer Swab - Antiseptic for cleaning the wound

An antiseptic which can be used to clean open wounds and ulcers, preventing them from becoming infected with bacteria or fungus.

Propolis - Natural Antibiotic / Waterproof Sealer

Part of the joy of angling is seeing stunning, vibrant, healthy fish up close and personal, and returning them to the water in peak condition, so that they can live to challenge plenty of other anglers, on plenty of other days.

 That’s why appropriate fish care, which puts the wellbeing of the fish before anything else, is so important; you don’t have to be an eco-warrior to care about ensuring the fish out there are in the best condition possible; after all, no angler wants to boast about catching a ropey-looking carp, or a pike that’d seen more than a few better days. You don’t just want a personal best – you want the best fish possible, one that is a pleasure to handle, and looks good in your album shots.  And you want other anglers to know the smile that comes to your face when you finally bring a lively, feisty beauty out to the bank, and it’s in pristine condition – it’s why, after all, every angler dreams about the big fish that’s never been caught.

When you bring a carp to the bank, part of your bankside routine should involve carefully checking its condition.  If you find any ulcers, or open wounds, a topical treatment such as Korda’s Propolis Carp Treatment should be ready to hand in your kit bag.

Creating a waterproof seal over ulcers and open wounds, Propolis prevents dirt, debris, and pathogens from causing infection, and potentially killing the fish.

Created with natural anti-microbial properties, and derived from bees, Propolis is known as nature’s antibiotic, and helps ensure prime fish stay in prime condition.
