Hi

I’ve narrowed my search down to:

- Fox Camolite Compact sleep system

- Nash Indulgence HD40 sleep system

Has anyone had either and can provide a review?

Any other suggested around the £300 mark instead of the above?

Thanks

I’ve ordered the Gen 3.
I also order the Sunblesa bivvy light so I’ll see what that’s like, reviews online seemed good.

Sounds good enough to me.
I’ll save the extra money and go with them.
Thanks

How long do they tend to last from a charge?

I’m currently looking for a rechargeable head torch.

I’ve seen from the previous posts the Sunblesa H11 gen 3 is popular.

AI has also suggested Simond Forclaz HL500, it’s a big heavier but lasts a lot longer.

Any suggestions on the above and also are there any Nitecore head torches around a similar price (under £25/30) that are recommended?

Thanks

I did see on the bowl website there was a few places in the syndicate available for 2026 but I’m guessing they’ve been filled.

Thanks for the reply.
Just had a look at Swarkestone and you’re right it is expensive, out of my price range unfortunately.
Looking to spend up to £500/600 for a yeah maximum really.

I’m looking for a bedchair similar price range for just 24 / 48 hour sessions.

Have you found anything?

I was thinking maybe the Fox Eos as I’m 6’3 and it’s slightly longer than a lot of others.

Thanks for the response.

I remember Fosters having Penns Lane but I can’t think of the others.

I’ve come across The Bowl syndicate that looks great and also Arrow Meadow if anyone has any knowledge or experience of these?

Hi,

I’m currently a member of Burton Mutual (Burton on Trent area).

I’ve fished most of the Sutton Park lakes growing up and a number of the Burton Mutual venues; Manor Park, Branston Water Park etc but with them being quite low stock waters I’ve struggled and blanking is getting a bit tiring.

I was looking for some recommendations for Day Ticket waters or Syndicates with availability / short waiting lists within 20-30 miles ish of Kings Bromley (near Lichfield).

I prefer to fish waters at least 10 acres in size ideally 20+.

Mature lakes preferably with some older stock.

Fish to over 30lb plus.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
