I have the specimen version to use just as a brolly or for short summer sessions. Good bit of kit, but I would not like to spend much time under it in winter.

I like my creature comforts and when it gets really cold and wet the pioneer, even with it's cap on, is just a little too spartan to get my old bones through a couple of nights of serious winter fishing.

Great shelter though.

not a problem for me mate,i knocked winter fishing on the head a long time ago,i cant catch in summer let alone winter
