Garbolino Set EVA Pro Box – Live Bait | 3-Piece Ventilation System
Keep Your Bait Fresh When it Matters Most
Look, we’ve all been there—you’re halfway through a blistering summer match and you realize your maggots are starting to sweat and turn, or your worms are looking a bit “done in” by the heat. Here at Gerry’s Fishing, we know that fresh bait is often the difference between a dry net and a framed finish. The Garbolino EVA Pro Box Live Bait Set is the professional solution to that exact problem.
This isn’t just a set of tubs; it’s a heat-management system for your live bait. The two internal boxes are finished in bright white EVA, which reflects sunlight rather than absorbing it, keeping the internal temperature significantly lower than standard dark bait tubs. Both of these inner boxes feature fine mesh lids, allowing for maximum airflow so your bait stays lively and “breathable” throughout the session.
The entire set nests perfectly into a larger, open-top outer box, making it a dream for storage and transport in your carryall.

Where to Use the Garbolino EVA Pro Box Set
This set is a versatile addition to any bait waiter or side tray:
-
Commercial Carp Fishing: Perfect for keeping a large volume of maggots fresh for “feeding the hole” or keeping worms cool before chopping them.
-
Feeder Fishing: The mesh lids prevent your bait from climbing out while giving you easy access between casts.
-
Canal & River Matches: Ideal for delicate baits like squats and bloodworm (where allowed) that require constant oxygenation and temperature control.
-
Summer Sessions: The white EVA is a game-changer on sun-exposed side trays, drastically extending the “life” of your bait on 20°C+ days.
💡 Gerry’s Pro Tip
“To really supercharge this set in the height of summer, try this: dampen a small rag with cold water and lay it over the mesh lids of the white boxes. The evaporation combined with the white EVA creates a ‘refrigerator effect’ that keeps your maggots stone-cold and dormant even in direct sunlight. Also, because it’s EVA, you can just give them a quick rinse with the hose at the end of the day—no more smelly bait tubs in the back of the van!”
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are the inner boxes white?
White reflects the sun’s rays. Darker plastics absorb heat, which “cooks” live bait. By using white EVA, Garbolino has ensured your bait stays significantly cooler, which is vital for keeping maggots from turning into casters prematurely.
Will the mesh lids stop maggots from escaping?
Yes. The mesh is fine enough to keep even small “pinkies” contained while still allowing for total ventilation. Just make sure the lids are zipped or clipped securely!
Is EVA better than traditional plastic bait tubs?
Much better. EVA is lighter, 100% waterproof, and incredibly easy to wipe clean. It doesn’t crack like hard plastic if dropped, and the rounded corners mean no bait gets “stuck” in the seams.
How do they fit in my luggage?
The two smaller boxes fit side-by-side inside the larger open box. This “modular” design takes up minimal room in your bag and keeps all your bait gear in one organized place
