I prefer the look of the lo-pro over the brolly but because of my old bones, I have changed over to a high back solar Recliner Chair Mkii high chair.

The internet reckons it won't fit under a lo-pro, anyone have any experience of this one any other high back chairs and if it fits under a 52" quickdraw?



Cheers

If I knew how to post pictures on here Iโ€™ve got one of the 52 with bedchair and high backed chair on the bedchair.
Not sure itโ€™s as big as the chair mentioned though.

I'd be amazed if it doesn't fit. Can set the Lo Pro quite high

I have the lo-pro and a couple of oval brollies. I haven't used the lo-pro much as I mostly fish days and use a chair not a bedchair. I think the lo-pro is best suited as a light overnight shelter when using a bedchair. You have a better view of the lake from an oval brolly if you are sitting on a chair. The lo-pro is rather long when packed down. If you need a brolly for day fishing then I would without a doubt choose the Quickdraw 52 over the lo-pro.

Shame, I was hoping it would replace using a 60" Fox brolly for days and a bivvy for the colder/longer nights.

I couldn't believe how lazy I was using a bivvy last weekend, I ended up staying in a swim after a couple of fish even though I knew the punisher next door had ruined my chances of a third.

Seems like I'll be old school for another winter with jack 'nipping' at my nose, so best invest in a better bag instead ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
