Another option from the European sea trout folks.
Not a fan of the holes, but a intriguing design.

Stripping Basket
- Thread starter Stonedfish
- Start date
How much $ is 176,00 DKK?
It looks like a solid basket.
Dang. Looks like a great deal.
It’s probably the shipping that will kill you.
Like some of the other baskets from over there such as Linekurv and Take, hopefully someone figures out how to carry them in shops over here that makes them reasonably priced.

I've seen that sale happen before. It was a mistake. Seems like mistakes keep happening. Good deal though.

I've decided to give the Ahrex Flexistripper a try. I use a stripped down Fishpond wading belt with the net loop in the back and I keep the basket belt above that to keep the basket from sliding down my non existent ass. The basket is always higher than I'd like so I thought I'd give this a shot:

That's the one I have, plus an extra one as a loner.
I'm curious about those. I hope you share your review!
I feel like the flexistripper would have the same issues as a basket with holes, but worse. That is, a wave or wading deep would float your line off the fingers. At 5'3", my Take basket is often sitting on the water's surface when trying to reach those fricking just-out-of-rangers!
Earlier this week I was fishing a large reservoir from my Spring Creek pram, I kept standing on my damn fly line (I can't sit still and I can't stand still, both of which cause size 13 boot foot tangles with fly lines). I've considered a stripping basket for the little boat.....
+1 on the Flexistripper. No trouble in the FL salt.
Shoot, that looks better than my overpriced Orvis one (even when I was able to get it half off). I think if I fished the surf more, I'd look at something else....although, the Orvis one works really well for my needs when I AM fishing the surf. Maybe I'll look into that for when I fish up in the Sound (I drilled holes in mine for the Oregon surf).
I like the fact it can be used as a chair, but not sure I could get up easily after sitting so low on it.

I don't know if you are intentionally pranking us, but it's a good one, regardless.
No. It is listed as one of the features.
Hmm. Usually plenty of driftwood for seating at a higher level that might be easier on the knees
My favorite thing about the Take basket is that it's softer rubberlike material. Which you come to appreciate when you whack frozen fingers against the edge while stripping!
