I have some Daiwa lightweight chest waders I use very occasionally when I need to wade out to cast.

For netting fish I've always just yanked my trousers off and gone in but I'm getting a bit old for that now, and it isn't really fair on anyone who has to see it.

So I need waders that I can quickly slip into when playing a fish for netting and the odd cast. I prefer lightweight gear, but I don't want to risk bumped fish so being able to easily step into them and pull them up is the priority here.

Vass seem to be the most popular choice but I'm confused about all the different options.

Can anyone tell me which would be best? Happy to look at other brands.

Cool will do

Has anyone just replaced a tyre? Looks like they only sell the whole wheel as a replacement.

Thanks gents, yes, I suppose only 50 inch should fit.

Anyone know what will/wont fit? Cheers

I've just remembered I bought an unused second Air V2 off a poster from here years ago as back up. Must be buried deep in my garage somewhere. Hope it's still okay. It will be in the bag so should be I guess. I may as well just get AA to make another infill and I can use my old over wrap which has hardly had any use.

My bivvy must be getting on for ten years old. It's a Trakker Tempest Air V2 with Army Andy infill.

It's perfect. Very light, very quick to set up and take down, and quality is superb. But it's starting to show its age. I'm completely out of the loop with what's available now, but can anyone recommend a replacement?

Must be as light and as quickly to set up, have removable front infill, and overwrap for occasional use.

Cheers

Just bought a 600m spool and I think I can see meterage marker labels. Can anyone confirm? And if so what distance. Cheers

Just bought the Carp Spirit 180 boat. Don't normally buy fishing brands with stuff like this but it looks well made and the wide deck is useful. Haven't had a chance to use it yet.

Has anyone used the Ultimate one? Used a Nash one before and it was fine until I trod on it.
