best bivvy ever?

[chesters1]

OK ok its not a bivvy but it could be if you want the best on the bank and a bank account big enough

Noticed one flaw or she didnt install the part ,theres no hood over the windows so rain doesnt fall straight in .it looks like theres a zip under a flap to install some type of rain hood but theres no sign of it.

The two insect screens are strange the amount of air that can actually pas through must be very small we have them on our windows and really fine mesh stops any breeze instantly the bigger the hole the better the breeze but to big and the midges crawl in ,with a stove you need plenty!

Times are a changin',  Early in my AN career I suggested there was a wonderful selection of pop-up tents that so closely resembled a bivvy or deluxe brolly.

Raised the darnedest stink I thought Elton and Newt were going to rescue me. It went something like this - - - you SOB yanks don't know your arce from a hole in the ground about fishing - especially carp fishing. NO angler in his right mind would be caught on the fishing bank in that trash (then 12 or 15 "Here - here's".

Bit short on palms at frensham ponds but it would be nice to see people humping in them on a hot night when the bites are slow.Nice looking but i cannot see much use when your line has frozen into the ice and the snows started

As for pop up bivvies my Gardener pop up bivvy is now being used as a shelter by the grandkids when they visit and it rains ,this corona has its better side its been sitting unloved in the loft for a couple of decades unfortunately it couldnt be bothered to fix its design flaws sitting idle for years but it still popped up but i had to struggle remembering how to put it back in its bag!

I think i ventured a thread under the same subject ,it didnt go well .

The conclusion was bivvies cost far more than identical tents because they have to and carp anglers say so lol

It's hard to get a true idea of quality just by a video, but it certainly looks impressive.Too rich for the likes of me, but compares well on price with the top end offerings from the likes of Nash, Trakker etc. Bet it weighs a ton though and wouldn't fancy lugging it far from the car. 

 

......oh and extra marks because she has a cute bum.

She's a bit skinny but if she comes with the tent it might be worth it.

At least the fire would make up for the lack of her bulk on those cold biteless nights.

I think if you turned up with both down your local lake someone would take notice ,the jealous ones would find a rule so you couldn't use it most probably

And a knife and the sense not to strap a gun to her belt like the bulk of  americans ,what are they going to shoot horseflies? (Not sure where she is? )

In a bug out situation its a bit vunerable so a gun recomended but i would prefer a cave but dragging that down the local lake impossible
