Dont cook a fry up in your bivvy.!!

Remember to use a Boilie Stop to stop your bait winging off when you cast.!!!!

But thats not to say it is the be all and end all, i know anglers who consistantly catch a lot of big fish, yet they are complete Pikeys!! Gaz, one of the lads on Welly, turns up to his chosen swim, kicks his barrow over, picks up his bag and empties it all over the floor, he then procedes to erect his bivvy over the top of all the ****, and thats where it all stays for the weekend. But boy does he catch some carp.
I should start doing a bivvy service (ahem), a sort of spring clean so to speak, from what ive seen, id make a bloody fortune.

Top tip is dont leave items on your bedchair as time spent looking for them is vital when on the bank,also no danger of baiting needles scewering you in the back or legs. lol

Default top tip

If your caught short through the night and need a number 2,then make sure you own the largest Fish Right bucket they sell as you will find that the rim is very user friendly. I must point out that a lot of research has gone into this matter and yes before anyone says it they are very strong too
