i've got a korum storm-brolli which is similar to the badger shelter (no. 1) but without the groundsheet and front flap. it's a bit awkward to put up but it's very good, especially when winter piking. make sure it has a worm drive centre spike as you can drive these into the ground for a firm hold.

Day shelters are for wimps, real anglers sit in the rain.

Fishing with pods and alarms isn't fishing. You do more harm to the fish and other wildlife when a fish rips line off your reel and gets snagged up somewhere.

i was allway told by my granddad if u are a match angler then you can not fish cos all you lot do is make a noise and upset all the other fisher men you go on the banks for 4 to 6hrs and **** the day up for the real fisher men

I have the Chub S Plus Max Bivvy, theres so much space big enough for 2 people, even so whats wrong with doing over night sessions? thats whole part of the sport and even so more of a challenge than just sitting on a box splashing ya gear off and making more noise than you should be, over night fishing is when the real fishermen come in:hihi: should try it sometime or is it too hard? ;)
Oh and personaly id go for the shelter then you can keep ya bags ect dry

i'd rather be a wimp and stay dry than be a soaking wet, freezing cold macho man. a bit of summer rain isn't a problem but in winter a shelter/brolly is a must especially when you fish all day.

I think even fly fishing anglers get more wet than you could ever get wet ;)
And as charliewag sayss id rather be dry than sat soaking wet all nightt specialy in the winter.
