Full details
The Castaway PVA Mesh Refill is a high-performance bait delivery tool designed specifically for carp and catfish anglers looking to create precise stringers and bait sticks. This 60mm diameter mesh offers the key benefit of reliable, fast-acting dissolution in varied water conditions, making it an essential component for focused baiting strategies. However, users should note that the 20m length requires proper storage in a cool, dry environment to prevent premature degradation due to moisture sensitivity.

Troubleshooting
Mesh dissolves during the cast
Check your hands for moisture and ensure the fishing line is dry before attaching the mesh stick to the rig.
Mesh takes too long to dissolve
This is likely due to the water temperature being warmer than expected or the mesh being overly compressed; avoid overly tight knotting.
Difficulty loading the mesh onto the tube
Ensure you are using a standard 60mm applicator tube; if the mesh sticks, ensure the tube surface is clean and dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the Castaway PVA Mesh Refill, slide the mesh onto your existing 60mm compatible applicator tube. Ensure your hands are completely dry before handling the mesh, as any moisture on your skin will cause the material to begin dissolving.
For care and storage, keep the refill inside a sealed plastic bag or a waterproof tackle box. If the mesh is exposed to humidity, it will lose its tensile strength and fail during the cast. Always store the product away from direct sunlight and damp conditions to maintain its shelf life.
