I had one of these, purely because it had no fleece lining in it, and was probably the best sleeping bag ive had apart from the length of it, without looking, i'm sure they were 2 metres long! it used to hang off the end of my bedchair onto the floor, which was a bit of a pain

A winter bag with a smooth inner? Look no further than the gardner carp duvet. Incredible bag.

Which bag was that? The fox ventec lite is 210cm which is snug on my bedchair (215cm), the gardner duvet compact is 230cm.

The Gardner duvet bag, it's really comfortable and warm, but it just hung on the floor at the end of the bed....just played havoc with my OCD lol!

Just a underwater suit with a tracksuit on top (hoody/bottoms) never had a problem, I have worn my waterproofs to bed before when it's been pissing down so I won't have to rush around putting it on of I got a fish and still was fine

I have got the Chub Vantage 5 Season Sleeping Bag which is smooth on the bottom of the insode of the bag, and fleece on the op of the inside of the bag. Perfect.

Another vote for the Gardner Carp Duvet . . .best all round bag I've used to date hands down. Not sure whether its fully 5 season, but I'll be mostly wearing softshell pants and a micro fleece in it as well as lobbing a cover over the top for good measure. My Nash Sub 20 Wideboy is probably warmer, but 5 times heavier and the fleece sticks to you with every movement . .its also wider which means cold spots in the corners

Hi Theres a winter bag post in the Tackle thread. I mention my bag but its a PITA as the foot end is pretty much open and my feet get caught up in the loose leaves.... As for it being peach skin....it still grips a bit but not as much as fleece lol

I'm guessing one of the GT Carp Duvet Compact bags aint going to fit a Fox Flatliter Compact bed. Don't really want loads of material draping over the edge of the bed.

It's the duvet plus at that I had, and they are nearly 3 metres long with the hood 270cm!! . They are really comfortable but just waaaaay to long! Not sure why they've done them this long tbh

I'm in the same dilemma....i have a flat liner and cannot decide between which one to get....compact or duvet plus.....according to Gardner website the plus is 235mm long including hood and 105mm wide......

The compact is 230mm long x 95mm wide....

It states the compact is suitable for standard size bed chairs....what is the dims of a standard size bed chair.....

Next time i get a spare 5 mins I'm gonna measure my bed chair......

The measurement of the compact cover is massive 250mm long x 155mm wide... i think this will be fine as the normal cover is nearly 2m wide.....

According to the dimensions on the angling direct site, your bed is about the same as my trakker bed, so the compact would be the one. The plus model must be for the oversized beds only, bit silly really
Almost as bad as Starbucks having three sizes, two of which translate to English as large, yet the large size translates as twenty
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
