If its for beach fishing i would recomend the ron thompson which i bought a few months back, its a bargain aswell at £50, just one pole in the top, throw some stones down on the flaps and away u go mate

can never seem to get round to building up the enthusiasm to buy one...

then when its peeing down and i look over at mike in his dogging shelter....oops sorry beach buddy i get that " i should think about it" feeling which goes when the rain does.

i would have a look at the RT one....has had great reviews for years...or the zziplex ian golds for tackle tartiness...and quicker by a minute or so to put up.

worth every penny mate and weigh practically nothing, even if your not sat in there its good to keep ya stuff together at night, and always handy for cooking sausages without the wind in ya face lol.

I use a small shelter that I originally purchased for the archery shooting line.... Have a look, they're very, very good!

cheers for all your help whats the ron thompson one like in rough weather mate

It's spot on mate, I don't use the flaps often but they can fold round the front to keep the weather out completely, and it comes with pegs u can stick in the ground if u ever needed them but I left mine on the beach the first night I took it out lol, it's the same as the dearer brand (beach buddy) but instead of having popers that will rust and fall off it has velcrow.

I use a RT shelter. Easy to put up on your own and does what it says on the tin
