Not every angler has the luxury of a large fishing van or the time for long sessions that warrant a full-sized transport setup. For those who prefer to travel light, move quickly, and keep things minimal, the Porter Lite delivers everything you need — without the excess.

As the most compact and streamlined barrow in the Carp Porter range, the Porter Lite is built for speed, simplicity, and serious bankside mobility.

While stripped back in size, the Porter Lite hasn’t cut corners on features. It maintains the same design language and durability that runs throughout the Carp Porter barrow lineup, offering a compact solution that punches well above its weight.

The Porter Lite comes as standard with an upgraded zip-top centre bag — a feature typically found on larger models.

With side access to the centre bag, you can truly fish off the barrow, accessing what you need without unloading everything. It’s a huge advantage in sudden weather changes, especially when your waterproofs are packed low.

Every detail of the Porter Lite is designed with weight-saving and speed in mind:

These changes create the lightest barrow in the Carp Porter range, making it a go-to for active day sessions or anglers who move frequently in pursuit of the perfect swim.

This minimalist frame doesn’t just save weight — it improves your ability to move quickly and efficiently, particularly when location is everything.

Despite its lean design, the Porter Lite remains surprisingly capable in the right hands.

By loading your bedchair “legs-up”, you can use the frame of the bed as improvised side bars — giving you more loading capacity for overnight essentials. While it’s not designed for luxury or multi-day setups, the Porter Lite excels for:

The fixed-leg setup adds excellent stability when stationary, so your gear stays put when it matters.

These small refinements enhance the overall appearance while maintaining the same trusted performance.

If you’re looking for a lightweight, no-fuss solution to get your essentials from car to swim, the Porter Lite is purpose-built for the job.

It’s the ideal option for the modern, minimalist angler who wants performance without the bulk.
