Has anyone got ,used or seen a Caperlan full integrated brolly system,if so what's your findings ....and how does the two front support poles fit to the brolly ,they don't screw in like other poles..

I have not seen any decathlon or caperlan gear on the bank,but reviews,if genuine sound quite good.

Watching that video has actually put me off them. Set up looks like a faff, didn't realise there were so many bits and pieces.

Lol. It was wonky as fook too. He even says
If you want to fit the front you will have to sort it out a bit better.

Hi Paul
because I just fish rivers now
and needed a smaller footprint with decent HEIGHT I wanted decent rear vents and the ability to fish open fronted if I wanted this ticks all the boxes due to health issues not used it fishing yet but put it up in the garden a couple of times very quick very easy rock solid and my Solar bed fits in easy with enough room for everything despite its 150cm deep
the bloke in the video was not all that lol

I have the solar sp brolly. Pretty much same as the undercover. It is a bit of a faff. You can leave all 4 storm poles connected but be careful not to ***** the material. I hardly use the rain gutter pole. I had a tempest v2 brolly before and for ease and lightness the v2 knocks the spots of the solar.

My lad fishes with one of the Caperlan engineers out in France. They're starting to make inroads into the French tackle market in a big way. I can't comment on the brolly Adam but I do know that they are starting to produce quite a lot of kit which might be useful for continental anglers in particular- boats, engines etc. My lad reckons their braided mainline in particular is worth looking at - he's been using that on some very snaggy waters out there and he reckons it's excellent. I'll ask him about the brolly and see what he knows or can find out. I'll watts app you when he gets back to me 👍
