The main platform is constructed from ultra light rust free alloys that not only make it one of the strongest and most stable systems, but also one of the lightest. The deep leg metal adapters are welded (not riveted) which ensures no flexing or movement when you step onto the footplate.
The system is built to support up to 25 stones (166 kgs) weight without the adaptors slipping. Despite this incredible strength the whole platform weighs only 17 lbs (8 kgs) and can be picked up with one hand! (Please scroll down the above thumbnails for detailed pictures of the leg adapter and main platform).
The latest innovation developed for our Octbox systems is the patented “pole support system” which slides in and out of the footplate to a maximum 40 cms forward of the front legs. Setting up the platform is simplified because no adapters are fixed to any of the legs (which might impede their movement), or prevent the full length of leg being used.
The keepnet can be used to to fill the gap between the pole support bar and the footplate by use of a bracket fixed to the footplate. This is of great benefit to anyone speed fishing!
The pole roller set-up (developed for the 2011 Octbox) has been devised with adaptability in mind. The pictures below show the various "set-ups" that can be achieved. The ability to set a forward support on the other side of your keepnet takes all of the backache and strain from the support of long poles. Quoting Mark Sawyer of the Angling Times, "This pole Support is the strongest I have ever seen!" . Having up to 120 cms from your elbow to the forward support allows the lowering of a pellet (or keeping the float steady in a cross wind) so much easier!
