crusian Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 Hi Fellas I'm starting to do more nights without any front on my Trakker Tempest Brolly , but I find it a bit chilly . Can anyone recommend a good sleeping bag / sleep system please ? . 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salokcinnodrog Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 I am using the Wychwood Morpheus 4 sleeping bag, but I do find it a bit warm in summer, sleeping in t-shirt and combat trousers, so I often just end up sleeping under a bedchair cover. In winter though, it is good down to -5, so with the cover I stay warm. They now do a Morpheus 7 I think it is. Another couple of alternatives are the Gardner Crash bag or the Rod Hutchinson All Season, although you are looking at £60 vs £120 https://gardnertackle.co.uk/product/camo-crash-bag/ https://rodhutchinson.co.uk/product/all-season-sleeping-bag/ crusian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it's because the 5 season bag is mainly all flecced inner under the duvet part and is also quite thick.

I’ve got to agree with highy on this one. It is the best I’ve had but it is also the only one I’ve had and it was free I won it along with the bed and pillow. I find them all excellent really comfortable bed and pillow and the sleeping bag is nice and warm. I’ve not done a winter night but I’ve done one in March and I was plenty warm enough with t shirt and Cargo pants on. ... and crusian 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got inside mine for a couple of hours on Sunday because I was fishing my lo pro open fronted and it got a bit nippy in the early hours.🙂👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmoputney Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 I would recommend mine as its a 3/5 season and probably an ideal bag as it has a removable inner for summer but....... They have stopped making it so I can't sorry 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluelabel Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 I was in my Nash scope brolly with an Abode overwrap, my bag is a Nash Frostbite sub zero fitted on a Wideboy... it wasn't cold, but there was a chill wind I was toasty... not the cheapest bag but the dual top layer is very versatile crusian and ... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't actually got a bed , Framey , I use a camp bed ( which decided to creak every time I moved last time out ) , but I would probably go for a compact for weight , and I'm only about 5ft. 8" . I could probably go to about £100 , Yonny , if I had the bag delivered to work so my Wife didn't find out - I'm not a d.i.y. expert like Highy 😁 B B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
