Bivvy/Brolly System


Recommended Posts

£200?

 

Seriously you can get a TFG Oval brolly and overwrap for less than that. It is what I use myself. This year I have used just the brolly for overnighters as it has storm sides, but I also take the overwrap for extra protection if it rains.

 

I have also used it in winter when pike fishing.

 

There is plenty of room in there for bedchair, with space behind it for equipment, and space in front by door to get in and out.

Looking for a brolly system with space saver or 1 man bivvy for weekend and day sessions.

looking under £200 ideally but would stretch to 250 at a push.

what do you recommend lads?

Esp lo pro if you a smallish shelter or tempset brolly if you want a larger footprint

tempest is nice but gets v expensive when full system and GS is included! is the hide-out any good? 

quite like the fox royale TT also.

Yeah lik total fishing do a deal but still about 300 quid I have the lo pro the smaller version  and am a big fan of it

Is there reason it had to have front on it? 

Personally I hate  having a front on my shelter  other then a mozzi mesh as i feel like I'm shutting the nature out. 

Personally I'd alway go with the brolly over bivvy  jusy because  of weight and time to put up

 Deffo avoid a bivvy then.  Imo they take far to long to set up  compared to brolly system especially  for jusy a day or night 

When i was looking for lighter shelter for a night I was torn bewteen the tempset  lo pro (both of which you can get fronts and groundsheet for)  or a standard  60inch  brolly. 

In the end i settled with lo pro  in the end as it had the better foot print   was cheaper  and overall lighter..if had to rebuy its a choice I'd make again as it ideal for me now. 

 There is loads of budget  friendly  systems out there now.buy your money take your chance  I had good  brolly from saber.  On fact still going strong  with my brother 5-6 years later.

Hopefully the fox quality  has improved compared to the sieve brolly system  which leaked  awfully (well mine did) my one also weighted  something like 11-12kg
