I bought one of those cheap eBay brollies. My advice to you is....don't. the material is awful, like tissue paper. And they come up small in general, I got a 45 inch version for day fishing just to sit under on my chair and it's not big enough even for that. It only measures 42 inch and that is going up and over the domed top rather than across the diameter ,so actually give about 35 inches of cover

My cheap old brolly (which I've had for 20yrs mind) finally gave up recently so I did loads of research on a replacement. In the end I managed to get an ESP lo pro. I looked hard at a similar 42" brolly but they just didn't look as good.
However, I think Leeda stuff is all good on the whole and very good value so that brolly would be worth a look.

wychwood brollys are excellent and Korum have one which is decent, got an odd name, pentalite or similar.

I bought these from decathlon for river fishing days and they work fantastically well . . .much lighter than dragging a 45/50" around - don't even notice I've got it . . .got the green island camo rather than the realtree jobbie . .select the 'brown' option

You'll need a bankstick for the clamp to get the brolly height right but just enough cover in a random downpour and easy to use on tight banks / small swims . . .clamp is heavier than expected but does the job - you could attach this to your chair if you've got enough frame exposed . . .
