Which Bivvy? Part 1
Saturday, April 19th, 2008There are so many Bivvies on the market when it comes to buying one where do you start? It’s not just Bivvies though there are Shelters, Brollys and Domes so lets have a look at the differences and advantages and disadvantages.
BROLLYS
Brollys are an extention of the umbrella principle which normally have storm side extensions that create a wrap around effect. The storm sides provide more shelter than a normal umbrella and some Brollys also have zip in front panels to provide almost total protection from the elements, though a set of storm poles is needed to support the front of the Brolly. A good example of a well designed Brolly System is the Angling Intelligence IWS 10+ Brolly . So what are the advantages/disadvantges of choosing a Brolly as your Carp Fishing Shelter? Most People consider Brollys to be easy to assemble and lightweight, however I am not convinced of this as most of the Brollys I’ve picked up seem very heavy. This may be down to the amount of ribs and steel used in their construction. As for the ease of assembley I am not convinced of this either as I find them quite unweildly, if you then add in the equation a groundsheet, 4 storm poles and a front panel I think they are heavier and more awkward to assemble than a cutting edge Bivvy. However despite my personal missgivings they remain very popular particularly as an open fronted overnight shelter in the warmer months.
