Thanks for replying I see blokes with motorised barra with bags in bags and the gear stacked up very high barra bag cool bag 5 rod bag around 4 buckets cook bag big titan bivvy they say I’ve had to buy power barra I can’t push one to heavy
Then they say just doing quick overnight
Also I only ever put a mug full of water to boil everyone said that mini needs windshield looks like poor design
