It is extremely Carpy to spray your own camo pattern onto your bivvy using rattle cans.

More importantly you should scribble the sizes of every fish you've ever caught all over the inside of it in marker pen before posting it on Facebook.

On a serious note, going over it with Fabsil will darken it up a tad😉

Spiders sense's tingling:- guess you don't dig pink then? Shame. What about a tie-dyed biv Jimi Hendrix stylee if pink isn't the one? Think it's pretty simple to do. Google?

Wouldn't that require putting the bivvy in a washing machine to tie dye it?

Wouldn't fit in a domestic one, so I'm guessing you'd need to go to the launderette. There's no way I'm putting my bivvy in a machine at Mr Wong's laundromatic, he'd kick my arse.

Dudes a triad man.

That's a good point. Some bad ass dudes those Triads.

This is the blag: so you stroll in all nonchalant like with two bags, one with clothes (legit) and the other with a biv (moody) nothing to see here chief as you smile back at him loading the machine with clothes. Outside you've got your mate waiting for you to give him the nod. Just do it with the eyes, anything else is just too obvious. Mate calls up Mr Wong, distracted, quick as a flash, you whip in the biv. Roberts you dad's brother. Sorted.

Rinse and repeat when your biv is dyed. Nice.

Can't fail. I'm in. No self respecting carping superstar can be seen with a faded bivvy. A faded bivvy means it's old and done a lot of nights. So on the face of it that screams carpy. Except of course any carp angler worth his salt will obviously be sponsored, and immediately that his bivvy gets even the merest hint of mud on it, he will get a new one couriered to him and most likely set up for him at the lake. Not for the sponsored angler the shame of a worn hoodie or God forbid, an unengraved kettle.
