Preston Innovations Ventalite XXL Hoodie Side Tray

Technical Specifications

Key Features & Performance

• Extra-Large Capacity: The massive XXL footprint comfortably accommodates large quantities of 3.3pt bait tubs, EVA groundbait bowls, and riddle trays, eliminating clutter on your peg.
• SnapLok Quick-Release Hood: The waterproof canopy unclips in seconds via the SnapLok mechanism, allowing you to convert it into an open tray setup on dry days or detach it for compact transit.
• Heat-Reflective Material: Built with a light-coloured fabric canopy that reflects direct sunlight and reduces internal temperatures to prevent live bait (maggots, casters, worms) from sweating.
• Ventamesh Drainage Base: Sturdy aluminum mesh floor allows rain run-off and spilled liquids to drain away instantly while maintaining maximum air circulation beneath bait containers.
• Five-Knuckle Heavy Load Stability: Engineered with three primary leg-clamping knuckles and two outrigger knuckles to support heavy loads of groundbait and water without flexing or drooping.

Ideal Applications

• Heavy-Bait Commercial Matches: Perfect for high-volume bait tactics where multiple tubs of pellets, corn, meat, and groundbait bowls must remain dry and organized within arm’s reach.
• Extreme Weather Conditions: Shields sensitive baits from heavy, continuous rain downpours or intense mid-summer sunlight.
• Large Seatbox Setups: Designed to lock onto 36mm-legged modern seatbox frames, providing a rock-solid, level platform over marginal water or uneven bankings.

Pro Tip

Outrigger Leg Setup & Airflow: Always attach support legs to the two outrigger knuckles when filling the tray with heavy groundbait bowls or large water buckets. To keep live bait cool during hot summer matches, open the back zip on the hood slightly to create a chimney effect—cool air will enter through the Ventamesh base and exit out the top, keeping your casters and maggots fresh all day.
