I find the 1970's dennon smock urban combat era quite fetching myself and the cut certainly hugs the right areas!


What do you prefer Camocraper?

All that matters when you are fishing is that you wear subdued colours, ie browns and greens, and keep quiet.

Camo doesn't matter, it's just a fashion statement.

It makes me laugh when I see shaven headed fatties dressed head to toe in camo, drinking lager, using mallets and having a party on the bank.

I don't laugh if they're anywhere near me, though.

Lol...

The best one i have witnessed is a group of mates on the garden side of Capesthorne main lake, dressed head to toe in Realtree hardwoods...

Think they should have been wearing 'Realbrick hardwall' lol

White shellsuit, red boots of some description, all this nonsense about being camo'd up etc etc - I can blank just as well in my ordinary clothes, no need to spend hundreds on this realtree stuff and blank !!

There's nothing better than some tight fitting combats!

I just suffer from flashbacks of my Bosnia days so have had to stop wearing them!

Realtree scales - now whats all that about?

Weigh a fish, put them down, lose Ł80 scales!

Camou clothing for me is to stop the landowner seeing you...........not the fish!
