I should say this is not my barrow mine is a lot smaller I had a puncture ( 1st time ever ) and borrowed it off a father and son who jumped in the swim I left. They were grateful that I showed them where I caught my fish how many wraps and  how much bait i put in.... I often wonder if they had any.

This was the moment I decided I needed to get better organised 😁

Ouch, been there done that.

Bedchair on the bottom layer helps, with legs open it holds gear in place if you have no side bars.

 

Last season I loaded mine up to go round the reservoir and on lifting the handles, the barrow didn't lift and the handles straightened. I didn't think I had that much weight on it, loads of bait though...

 

I've never really thought about taking a pic of a full barrow load, but I'm positive mine for a week would not be that full.

[dayvid]

I cant imagine anyone not losing a barrow at some point in its life , maybe even  twice or thrice 😲

My barrow is a converted XL Match Platform made by RCT Rigger... it has two front wheels... it doesn't tip over, even when loaded to the gunwhales... (not that I do everload it)

[carpepecheur]

Living off my old age pension limits my purchasing power but not my imagination. I use a home made barrow which is very easy to pull because of its large wheels, is preloaded at home, fits snugly into a VW Golf without packing/unpacking and makes a handy fishing station at the swim. Larger items simply strap on top.  ----- and it has NEVER tipped over.

Yes that was the idea that prompted it. They threatened to close vehicle access to a lake I fish and the alternative would have been a very long walk with arthritic knees. It is still in use 10 years later but the Golf has long gone.

Enough for a quick overnighter??

It always seems to much and yet I always forget a few things??
