Correct,it's exactly the same I believe .

This is why I watch so much of the Bushcraft world,they have some great non purposed items which could be great for angling..


Anyone else got any items ,that can be repurposed,for fishing?

Similar.

I use mostly EDZ merino for base and a beanie
Also
Socks are bridgedale
Waterproofs are Cabelas Goretex
Boots are Brasher
Joggers are slazenger as are summer thin Jersey shorts
Even my hoodie is fleece by Protak.

Headtorches aren't fishing brand either

Probably most other stuff is though.

Do any of theseTigris type of cots have individual extending legs? Many of the river and lakes I fish don't have flat banksides.

That is true,they don't extend, but the miniute a company does do them, so it is possible to adjust them I will look into getting one ..

I keep my XL ,Helinox chair in the porterlite underbag, just imagine how great it could be to do a similar thing with a carp bedchair ,or at least reduce the considerable bulk massively...

I bet someone, something will come along to negate bedchairs in one form or another..

I note,there is a piece of kit that can transform a SIM,into a low level chair or bedchair buddy ...think Paul Messner reviewed one ,back along..

I could never sleep on an uneven bed, I need a spirit level to check the bed is even.
You would think it would be an easy thing to produce but I suppose you could level out the ground with stones, branches or a spade if necessary.
