Jrc sti 3 rib brolly with wrap, best bivvy ive ever had and been with me all over the world and now serves me great in Germany, great for short and long sessions, difficult to get hold off now but its just awesome, Put it up in 10 minutes and the wrap, warm, solid and 10k water proof, quality but what I love is you can take your gear out and move it in one so easily, been with me in the worst weather and the best and does great in them all and its so light to carry when all packed up. I doubt ill ever change but im searching something for my son now as I cant get hold of one of those for him it seems sadly

The old ribbed brollies used to be the in thing, but other co have gone mad now. But I think you're right, heard good things about them years ago. I'm now using a nash titan hide pro xl. Check out my other video. Pretty good for the money. Its a keeper for me. Cheers.

@@Life_of_John Ok will do thanks mate, yea this sti brolly has been with me for years and years now, not a rip in it or anything, been in the worst winters and hottest summers, does me a treat. Now my sons old enough and you know what they are like, worse than us for wanting the best gear but im sick of the tat available now so trying pick things right for him. Its funny when you carp fished so long, I rarely buy big items now days so a little out of touch, more terminal gear etc lol
Will check the videos out, thanks mate

@@Pobsta-de7hb At my age now, height plays a big part of it. Hence I got rid of the small trakker, and got a xl pro nash. Good for the money, quick enough to erect and not stupidly overpriced. Well, not when I got it anyway. I love a bit of kit in a sale. The New trakker is out so maybe look for a good used older model trakker, but the taller one.
