Fox R Series Brolly System CUM259

Product Information

We found that the Fox R-series brolly system is a really solid, well thought-out, and well-built fishing shelter and is a great all-rounder. Yes! If you’re normally a brolly angler, but want to bring your partner along for the odd session or you’ve got a week in France planned then you can massively add to the space of the R-Series Brolly with a clever extension section. This simply zips on to the front of the brolly, creating a tight seal. It’s made with aluminium poles and comes with an extending groundsheet, offering you a two-man conversion whenever you need it. Cleverly, the front infill panel for the brolly fits perfectly on the front of the extension, so you don’t need a separate one. If your aim is to cut down the size and heft of your kit, then pay close attention to the weight of the shelter you’re considering. Perhaps it’s biggest feature though is actually the material. It’s made from Aqua’s own Aquatexx material which is hardwearing and virtually immune to condensation. – Just what you need when fishing under the brolly without an overwrap.

The front is completely removable, making ideal for those who want to fish with an open front in the summer. You can buy a brolly extension that zips on to the front. It’s similar to an open awning, giving you lots of extra room for socials, cooking, or just storing kit on longer sessions. The Daiwa Mission provides extended storm sides to help protect against heavy winds and horizontal rain. You also benefit from groundsheet protection which is handy if you want a dry surface available to you before you stow your gear. There are 4 ribs that make up the frame of this brolly system which makes it sturdy and rigid and there is an option that allows you to change the doors from clear PVC, a solid Khaki door, or just the mozzy mesh.The right bivvy can significantly enhance your angling experience, providing comfort, protection, and convenience. Fox International's bivvy range, from the Fox pop up bivvy to the R Series, caters to a broad spectrum of angler needs. The next time you're gearing up for a fishing expedition, understanding the features of these bivvies might just be the key to a more enjoyable outing.

The Shelter is supplied in a spacious bag and comes with two lightweight aluminium tension rods for added support. What makes this shelter stand out from the competition is the option to add a full mozzy infill panel and/or a brolly extension at a later date if required.

A term often bandied about when it comes to shelters, the hydrostatic head rating of a bivvy relates to waterproofing. Supplied with zip-on, fully removable Infill Panel that features three door options - clear PVC, solid Khaki and mozzy mesh You’ve got a heavy duty ground sheet as standard and front/rear mozzie mesh to keep air flowing in the summer months. The R-Series range replaces Fox’s popular Royale brand but continues its reputation for well-priced items. On the bank you would be hard pushed to tell the R-Series Brolly from its all-conquering and far more expensive big brother the Fox Ultra 60 (and the Fox Supa Brolly that preceded it). At first glance, you’ll notice just how large the R-Series is. It’s a full 20cm wider than the Aqua Fast and Light. As a result, you’ve got sizeable footprint inside to fit days worth of kit.

A 10,000mm hydrostatic head ensures a completely weatherproof experience, with this high-quality brolly set up keeping you sheltered, shielded, and dry through lashing rain and howling winds, making it a suitable alternative to a bivvy for anglers who want to fish without fuss. The R-Series Brolly System is supplied with two 24” front and two 26” rear storm poles, which come with threaded storm caps for a completely stable, durable, and reliable set up at any time of year, in any weather, and on any venue. A zip on/zip off R-Series infill panel turns this open front brolly into a fully enclosed shelter at the swish of a zip, and comes in a choice of solid PVC, which matches the khaki brolly, clear PVC, which allows you to keep an eye on what the water’s doing, and mozzy mesh, which is ideal for those balmy, pest-plagued summer nights. A two way zip creates a letter box doorway, that gives you the option of fishing from inside the brolly – often a sensible choice if the weather suddenly turns, and the rain that’s arrived doesn’t look like it plans to go anywhere anytime soon! Well, if you buy the basic brolly you can upgrade by buying the front infill panel separately at a later date. Whether you buy it separately or go for the System from the off, these front doors have two-way zips so you can use them letterbox-style in driving wind or rain. If this is the case for you, you’ll want to make sure additional extras are available. There are a few things you can add to your carp brolly system to make it more suitable for colder weather conditions. These include: However, perhaps the most underrated advantage of a brolly system is the excellent viewpoint you get from your bedchair. Most brolly systems can be opened up completely at the front, giving you an excellent viewipoint for spotting showing fish. As the name suggests, this benefits from one feature not found on any other brolly on this guide. This carp brolly system has an inner vapour guide, designed to prevent condensation drip.
