Product Details and Uses

Garbolino Double Handle Groundbait Bucket 40L

Take the strain out of heavy bait preparation with the Garbolino Double Handle Groundbait Bucket 40L. At Gerry’s Fishing, we know that when you’re prepping 40 liters of groundbait, weight becomes a serious factor. Standard single-handle buckets can be awkward to carry and often place uneven stress on your back. This heavy-duty 40L bucket features a reinforced double-handle system, providing the balance and stability required to transport large volumes of feed to your peg with ease.

Constructed from high-impact, UV-stabilized polymer, this bucket is built to endure the rigors of professional match fishing. The extra-large capacity makes it the ideal choice for “big weight” venues where you need to mix multiple bags of groundbait and leams to keep fish in your swim for the full five hours. Its wide diameter is specifically designed to accommodate the Garbolino 40L Riddle, allowing you to aerate your mix directly into the bucket for a perfect, lump-free consistency.

Finished in the iconic Garbolino Blue and Black, this isn’t just a bucket—it’s a fundamental part of a high-performance bait station, designed to keep your feed fresh and your transport effortless.

Where to Use

Big River Matches: When targeting Bream and Hybrids on venues like the Shannon or the Trent, you often need massive amounts of heavy groundbait mixed with soil or leam. The 40L capacity ensures you can mix everything in one go.
Commercial Margin Fishing: Ideal for prepping large quantities of “slop” or micro-pellet mixes when you’re expecting a big-weight finish in the final hour of a match.
Festival Sessions: If you’re fishing multi-day festivals, this bucket is perfect for keeping a “master mix” at the back of your peg, allowing you to top up your smaller bait tubs as needed.
Bait Cleaning & Soaking: Use the massive volume to “power-wash” large quantities of pellets or to store hemp and tares in water to keep them from drying out during a summer session.

Pro Tip

Gerry’s Pro Tip: The double handle isn’t just for carrying! When you are riddling groundbait, the two handles provide a much more stable “anchor” point. Hold one handle while you work the riddle with your other hand to prevent the bucket from sliding around on uneven ground. Also, if you’re fishing a venue with a long walk, use the double handles to balance the bucket across the handles of your Garbolino Trolley—it creates a much more stable center of gravity than a single-handle bucket.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need two handles?

When a 40L bucket is full of dampened groundbait and leam, it can weigh over 15kg. A single handle puts immense pressure on one hand and the bucket’s rim. The double handle system distributes the weight evenly, making it much safer to lift in and out of a car or carry to a distant peg.

Does it come with a lid?

This specific model is the open-top mixing bucket. However, we stock a range of compatible Garbolino bucket lids and bowl covers at Gerry’s Fishing that are designed to snap onto this 40L rim to keep your bait dry and prevent evaporation.

Will the handles rust?

The handles are made from reinforced steel with a corrosion-resistant coating. To ensure they stay in top condition, simply wipe them down with a dry cloth after fishing in wet conditions or using salty additives.

Is it easy to clean?

Absolutely. The internal surface is polished and non-porous. Even the stickiest “Method” mixes or molasses-based groundbaits will wash off easily with a bit of lake water and a sponge at the end of your session.
