Funnily enough the Chub cloud 9 jumbo 5 season sleeping bag.... 
If i even need to replace my Duralite sleep system i go for the Fortis snugpak, but would probably just buy the Duralite system again (you cannot use the duralite bags on other beds)

Brilliant thank you mate. And thanks to everyone else too. Looks like I'm gonna have to stop being tight and, get the snugpak and just go fishing more to justify it. Damn 🙄😅

EBay vouchers, every now and again 20% ones pop up, worth keeping an eye out.

I find it personally best to phone the tackle shop's myself, iv always got a better deal over the phone than what they are advertising for.
I'm pretty sure I got my techlite for 180 when I phoned England angling.

My 20yr old JRC Terry Hearn stealth 5 season....... 
I would only look for a sleeping bag to cover Winter and maybe late Autumn and Spring if they are very cold.
Most of the year, I just use an army surplus wool blanket, or an army surplus lightweight blanket, or a poncho liner or an overwrap untill Winter starts to kick in. In Summer when it gets hot, a lot of nights I just lay on the bed with no covering at all with maybe just a blanket nearby if their is a morning chill.
It seems to be forgotten about that sleeping bags are not essential and needed for 12 months of the year.

Funnily enough I'm actually still using my old JRC Stealth 4 season, but it's getting on and I fancy a change after 16 years 😂

I use a Trakker big snooze+ then just chuck a £16 B&M thermal blanket over it if it's cold (in carp green obviously) I also have a cheap self inflating mattress offa Amazon which stays on my bed with the bag.
I use the https://rodhutchinson.co.uk/product/all-season-sleeping-bag/ with an https://ultimateangling.com/da/fishing-sleeping-bags/ultimate-night-fleece-cover.
In summer I will sleep under just the cover, and in winter get into the sleeping bag with the cover on top.
I've been fishing down to -4⁰ C in this and been warm in just combat trousers and a Norgi top.
If you copy and paste the links it will take you to the pages direct.
I admit that I have a tie-in with Rod Hutchinson tackle, but it is the gear I use, and I would not recommend it if it didn't do the job.
