The Fishermans Carp Bivvy

An essential piece of equipment for the serious carp angler today is the Carp Fishing Bivvy. It is vital that the he is sheltered from any type of weather thrown at him, come rain, sun, wind or snow. Another main feature is the amount of space inside the bivvy because this will be his home for a day, a week, or even a month. Carp anglers bivvied up not only need an abundance of tackle items, but have cooking equipment, spare clothes, and even things like TVs, Radios and Fridges.

When a specimen angler arrives on the bank he needs to spend valuable time looking for fish movement, preparing groundbait and finding good locations to cast his baits. For this reason he doesn't want to be spending lots of time setting up his camp, so a bivvy nowadays has to be fast and easy to setup.

A bivvy that is designed to be setup very quickly is the TFG Force 8 Bivvy. It's revolutionary central hub system quickly pulls the strong flexi ribs together. Its then just a matter of simply sliding the Flash-Touch power lock into place and the Force 8 Bivvy all season shelter is good to go.

From removing from the bag, the TF Gear Force 8 Bivvy can be erected in just 20 seconds. If you don't believe me, then you can watch Matt Hayes demonstrate how easy it is to Kevin Green in the Video on the Fishtec Website.

The TFG Force 8 bivvy also has a twin skin to maximise comfort, and create a warm, thermally insulated environment with no condensation, which virtually guarantees full protection against the worst weather possible. It has also been designed with an integrated porch area that gives more than average storage space for wet clothes, bait and other tackle items you do not want to have inside your main living area. The porch also provides extra frontal protection when the weather is particularly bad.

Reviews written about the Force 8 on other fishing sites consider it generally as 'easy and quick to setup', ' a nice little bivvy' 'looks tidy', and 'seems very solid once pegged and setup'. If you like to fish with a fellow angler or you have more gear than the average angler in your Bivvy then it's well worth paying the extra 25 for the force 8 2 man bivvy.
