Folding Wheel I want to buy my husband a Carp Barrow for his birthday. Which one should I get?
I have been looking a the Carp-Porter Fat boy, Fat-boy low loader and the Mark 2. Also a barrow by Daiwa. It needs to be easy to fold up, take the wheel of and not too heavy.
I laugh at how much stuff some carp anglers take with them, now I know how life is with them these days. At Tring reservoirs (Startops) a while back I had to manouvre the wheelchair I was pushing my Mother around in right in to the hedge to allow a guy with a massively-loaded barrow covered with a tarp to get past on a narrow part of the path. Always happens doesn't it? Couldn't have turned up at a wide bit,haha. I thought he might be a builder, come to repair the bird-watching platform we had just passed, which had "Danger-No Entry" signs and a tape across it. A minute later I saw a carp tent, or 'bivvie' as they call them. Not in my book. A bivvie is less than a third of the size of tent this guy had. I'm a fell walker and touring cyclist, used to camping wild on mountains and moorland. Love it. What he had around was more than I would have in a camp for a month! If I go for trout or carp in our local reservoirs or for salmon in the couple of decent swims we have, everything but the rods goes in a rucksack and a small tackle bag. That includes a tent and sleeping bag for over-nights, and food, and a stove and spare fuel, washing kit and towel, a book to read, and the photo gear and binos. I travel light, not frugal. I get set up away from the water and move with stealth. (Lovely word that isn't it? All creepy and spies and things. Military career,see. And an opportunistic camper, well hidden, and safe) That guy had a construction site! Green in colour, fine, but looming high at the edge of the water, and very obvious. No wonder they take ages getting a fish! And then perhaps even use the time excuse as the reason for needing all that stuff. Crazy! I'm going for sea bass tomorrow, from a glorious beach twenty miles away in the north of the island I live on. On the piccie, behind the mist. Family visit done for this month. Look forward to next. Symmon's Yat, I got planned, if the weather's good. Mum loves it there. Not mentioning fishing, oh no. There for the scenery. And she really does love it. But I'll have a bag with me, hint hint. Well, you do don't you? Fishing again? Tut tut! The bag's all ready for tomorrow, all but the food and water barrel. It weighs about fifteen pounds, twenty or a bit over when the food and water are in. Everything for a day and an overnight on the beach for wildlife photography and fishing, coffee making, and freshly-cooked meals. In a rucksack, a tackle bag, and a bag with two rods in. Oh, and a pole and a sprung steel net-rim, sprung out flat. The rest of the net is collapsed, and in the rucksack. Home made, that net. Takes almost no room at all.
