Fishing Bedchairs

Since the 1980’s when the first dedicated fishing bed became popular, anglers have never looked back! Having being developed from a glorified camp beds, we have seen some major improvements in the designs and features available from fishing beds which has totally revamped sleep systems for keen fishermen. With leading brands competing in the quest for the ultimate in comfort and design, the options to us are extensive and fishing bedchairs now come in various sizes, designs, warmth ratings and even different shapes

When heading off to the bank, having a comfortable carp bedchair is the key to a good night’s sleep. Without sufficient rest, our performance cannot reach its maximum and the success of our fishing trip can be impacted. Setting up a warm base where you can get your head down does not have to compromise on fishing time; setting up carp fishing rods with an alarm will mean you are alerted should you get a nibble during the night.

Your Guide to Carp Bedchairs

As much as finding the right tackle and bait is important from person to person, the same applies to fishing bedchairs. To give yourself the best possible chance of a great night’s sleep, here are some key things to consider when looking through our selection of fishing beds:

• Staying warm: It’s easy to forget how much chillier it can get on the bank when the sun goes in. The amount of insulation varies from bedchair to bedchair so finding one with a sufficient amount of warmth is key, especially if you are heading off on fishing trips throughout the winter. We usually advise going for more insulated carp bedchairs as it is easier to remove layers than add them, keeping you comfortable through the cold nights.
• Sufficient space: There is nothing worse than feeling cramped in your fishing bed or finding out that your bedchair doesn’t fit inside your bivvy. Make sure to size up your fishing bedchair before purchasing to ensure that there is plenty of space for you to relax in whilst not taking up the entirety of your shelter.
• Portability: Bear in mind that you will have to carry your new fishing bed to your spot alongside the rest of your equipment, so ensure you will be comfortable doing so. Lightweight bedchairs that fold down compactly will be beneficial for trickier destinations so weigh up the importance of a warm and high quality carp bedchair.
