Howdy folks, long time no speak!

I'm in the market for a new bivvy, looking for a 1 man job, rapid erection is a must It would mainly be used for overnighters, and also a week in France.

Was looking on eBay, saw the trident on there for £285, but after a quick search on here it didn't get too good feedback....

Considered the Armadillo, is this still generally regarded as the best bivvy?

£300 is probably my limit.

I'd be very grateful of any help - thanks.

edit: if you know of a cheap source of receommended bivvy please do share

look at aquaproducts.co.uk

i tell you what mate, i was out fishin the other night in those rediculous winds in my nash pre-98 titan with winter skin on,

it never moved a muscle.

bet you could save yourself a few quid if you can pick one of these up second-hand.


ive had this bivvy since new and had it out in some serious conditions when lesser bivvys have simply crumpled..

i know its not a massive bivvy inside but what it lacks on the inside it more than makes up for in strength and reliability!


just a thought!

nash do me a favour!!!

Check out Kent Tackle mate doing the original Trakker Pioneer which is the same as the Aqua Pioneer for £299.99.Bargain if you ask me but I think they only have 2 left.Plenty of room and they don't come quicker to erect and made of Aquatex material.

The number for Kent Tackle is 01580754422 and according to their website(special offers section) they have 2 in stock.Hope this helps,Potter.

trakker not up to Aqua standards i have gear by both

Says employee from Company X

I was under the impression it was the same thing - thanks.

Do you think the MK2 is worth £300? Is the extra £100 worth it for the MK3 (a bit out of my price range atm).

Thanks for your input.

aqua have knocked £50 of the mk 11 dillo
