Price: £249.00 was £335.00

The Trakker Tempest Brolly 100 needs little introduction, it is one of, if not the fastest erecting shelters on the market thanks to its ingenious bock design, meaning the Tempest can be setup and be completely free standing in less than 60 seconds.

he Tempest weighs a mere 6kg making it perfect for the short session angler or the angler who likes to stay mobile, the shelter features 100T material which is both waterproof and tough to keep you dry and protect the brolly from damage! The back panels can be raised to reveal insect proof netting which allows for lovely cooling ventilation in the hot, summer months, which can be quickly rolled back into place should the weather take a turn for the worse.

Nash Titan Hide Pro Bivvy
Price: £219.99 was £299.99

www.total-fishing-tackle.com

Regarded as one of the strongest shelters on the market, the Nash Titan Hide Pro is a great product for those looking for a fast erect, brolly/bivvy hybrid. With a whole host of extras that can be added, the Titan Hide Pro is as suited to overnight angling as it is to those fishing longer sessions. The flat back design allows a bedchair to be positioned against the rear of the shelter, ensuring the maximum space-to-footprint ratio is utilised. 

The Hide uses a locking system, which gives the shelter its rigidity, eliminating the need for storm poles whilst also allowing the shelter to be freestanding. In swims that are difficult to get pegs in, this shelter will be invaluable. The anti-twist poles simply fit together, and the ribs are then fanned out and locked into place. We would say there aren't many faster bivvies to set up on the market.

An interesting and unique feature is the mesh capsule that simply clips to the Titan internally, whilst being fused to a groundsheet, it eliminates insects and rodents from entering the bivvy. The 20,000mm fabric externally will keep you dry in any conditions.

Mesh organiser pockets are a welcome addition for storing items such as phones or receivers, this keeps everything neat, organised and to hand when needed, which can only promote more efficient angling.

Pros

  • Strong, easy to erect.
  • Very versatile bivvy.

Cons

  • More suited to anglers that don't take loads of tackle due to its smaller footprint.

ON SALE

Advanta Protector MZ Fishing Bivvy
Price: £74.99 was £149.99

www.awin1.com

If you have just started fishing overnight or don't want to splash out on an expensive shelter, the Advanta Protector MZ Fishing Bivvy is definitely worth a look.

The bivvy benefits from a 5000mm waterproof material and a tough velcro-in groundsheet to ensure the weather is kept out and you can stay comfortable throughout your stay. The door can be rolled back in warm weather and comes with a solid or mozzi mesh infill panel.

With heavy duty pegs and reinforced pegging points, the bivvy will stay secure once its pinned down, with the two aluminium poles keeping the system lighter and structurally sound.

Pros

  • Mozzi or solid door infill.
  • Heavy duty groundsheet.

Cons

  • Not as strong as some other bivvies available.

ON SALE

Nash Titan Hide XL
Price: £159.99 was £239.99

www.awin1.com

The Nash Titan Hide XL is the original version of their now infamous shelters and is the slightly larger bivvy in the range. Thanks to the unique locking system, the bivvy can be erected in under one minute with practice (we currently use them) and once its locked into place, the Hide is completely free standing, which makes placing it and pegging it so much easier. In fact, if it's not windy, the bivvy doesn't even need pegging down.

A 5000mm Hydrostatic material with taped seams helps keep any of the British weather at bay and we have never found a situation where it has leaked, with the rain gutter helping to keep rain out and away from the front of the bivvy. The flat back design allows you to push the bedchair to the back to maximise useable room, and with it only weighing 6kg total, you almost forget you've got it with you. Ideal for those who are short on time or want a super easy bivvy to set up.

Pros

  • Freestanding design.
  • Structurally very strong.

Cons

  • The door options are sold separately.

ON SALE

Sonik Xtractor Bivvy
Price: £229.99 was £299.99

www.total-fishing-tackle.com

Sonik have designed the Sonik Xtractor Bivvy for anglers doing shorter sessions and overnighters by incorporating some interesting features. The bivvy sets up quickly, meaning you'll be fishing in no time. 

The Xtractor's aluminium centre block streamlines the erection process completely. With all poles exiting the block, once the anti-twist ribs have been connected, the bivvy simply fans out and is locked in place under the peak at the front of the bivvy. This creates a very sturdy, freestanding structure, that can be erected in as little as two minutes, perfect for those new to setting up a bivvy. The flat back, steep-sided design also helps maximise space, allowing the bedchair to be placed as far back as possible.

All the poles are made from strong aluminium, which helps to reduce the weight. Whilst the fabric incorporates a 5000mm hydrostatic polyester to ensure you stay dry. The bivvy also includes a Vapour cap to reduce condensation in the colder months, a big plus from us!

Pros

  • Block system allows for easy and quick set up.
  • Flat back design gives plenty of internal space.

Cons

  • 5000mm fabric isn't as waterproof as others.

JRC Defender 2 Man Bivvy
Price: £129.99 was £229.99

www.total-fishing-tackle.com

This classically designed JRC Defender 2 Man Bivvy is a good value choice for fishing overnight with a friend, or if you just want more space on your own.

The practical 5-section aluminium pole design maximises internal space, giving you plenty of room to store your luggage items. The 2-way letterbox door is a desirable feature on modern bivvies and there is also the option to roll back the front entirely, as well as 3 door window options.

At 7kg in weight, it's not too heavy to take to the swim either, and it comes with all the extras you will require and expect, including pegs and a Velcro-in groundbait.

The bivvy has a 5,000HH rating against rain and other elements.

Pros

  • Perfect choice for two anglers fishing overnight.
  • Letter box door and roll back front a plus.

The two rib design is easy to pop up and will keep you and your gear protected in the harshest of weather thanks to the 10,000 HH ripstop material. Just 120cm when fully packed down, the package still contains all the essentials you need to keep you comfortable on the bank, including pegs and a heavy duty groundsheet. In the summer months there is one large rear mozzy mesh vent to help with air flow. If you are an angler that likes to get on the move and follow the fish, this is a great option.

Pros

  • Carpy camo front.
  • Light to move around.

Cons

www.total-fishing-tackle.com

The Solar Tackle Compact Spider Shelter has to be one of the fastest bivvy/brolly systems to set up on the market, with an erect time of just 30 seconds.

The compact and lightweight nature of this shelter make it perfect for the roving angler, whilst the high grade SolarTex fabric will still ensure you're protected from the elements. The Cam-Loc frame system helps get the shelter stable on all terrains and the square rear profile means that despite being compact, there is still plenty of room for essentials.

JRC Stealth EZ-Winder Bivvy
Price: £199.99 was £569.99

www.total-fishing-tackle.com

The JRC Stealth EZ-Winder Bivvy is an ideal choice for any angler who really hates messing around to put up their bivvy or those who are simply short on time. A clever winding mechanism allows the bivvy to be erected, easily and quickly in seconds, saving you time so you can concentrate on getting the rods out. 

Made from a durable, 10,000 HH waterproof Hydratex fabric, the bivvy is more than capable of keeping you comfortable and dry during the worst of the British weather and a clever rain gutter helps divert rain away from the bivvy door.  The pole system utilises a spider design, with all the poles on the external side, meaning you benefit from the maximum amount of space whilst inside the bivvy.

The shelter comes supplied with pegs and a strong PVC groundsheet and includes a fully removable, 2-way door system, with a clear, green or mozzy mesh infill depending on your preferences.

Pros

  • Easy to erect.
  • Design maximises internal space.

Cons

  • A slightly better set of pegs would be nice
