A good quality fishing brolley?

[BML]

I'm looking for a good quality fishing large but not to heavy brolley. Any suggestions would be helpful.

I have a Sensas lightweight brolly £30 AND a Preston 50" Flat Back one £60 - but that's quite heavy.

 

One of these looks OK but get what you pay for!!

Downside of these less expensive ones is that the struts aren't as strong as the the dearer ones - as you'd expect.

 

I used my light one Sunday just gone in quite a breeze & was OK & not pegged down either - but would have prob' blown inside out in a strong wind??

 

Guy lines recommended - I have a Preston "Offbox" brolly adaptor so I can have it attached to the box - better than trying to find soft ground to stick it in.

 

Be aware though, your box could end up in the drink if not sat on it when it's blowing a Hooley, as my dear old Uncle once found out, much to his Chagrin
