https://redirect.viglink.com?key=61b6837f873039acbf98453ea3be9ec0&prodOvrd=PCR&opt=false&u=XkUWRksJGElPQEQeRFgNDgMUTRZXWl5KCENNIVwAE1NDT2ZqfBo1VVZBRB5qDg0DFBR7VUZHBANfB0hYCwcbYQ1ETFJVCl0aYF1SSxVOMQlXWUYYZAwnWk8jUBYLG3cLWFxWRUteWEEdeFgYAgkVFFlaUR4nDlIWFhQKDRtiCllKVhovW1IedlpKCQoMARR%2BXUZbSCdaDAFcF0wDA1QBAQsEUA%3D%3D&x=v1&prdId=10975603534&barcode=BgVVAQEDBFQBAgMCBw0%3D

The Deeper Pro is an electronic, castable sonar device that has a multitude of uses for the angler who fishes from the bank or boat. Whilst it will display if there are fish in the swim, the majority of anglers use the Deeper as a feature finding tool and it is really useful for mapping out new lakes.

The Deeper will show you the depth up to 100m, water temperature and help identify what the substrate is on the bottom. Thanks to its built in WIFI, it works in tandem with your smartphone to reveal in real time what the parameters are of a given spot, so you don’t have to reel in to find out what the information is. Ideal for using with zigs too, as it saves casting a marker out if there are fish in the area or you are short on time.

Pros

  • Castable sonar device
  • Ideal for using from bank or boat
  • Helps identify lakebed substrate

Cons

  • Needs a heavy leader so it doesn't crack off and disappear into the lake

Sonik SK-TEC Bivvy
Price: $147.25 (was £184.95)

The large peak offers superb protection from the elements, while the two-way door allows you to open the view letterbox style to ensure no rain will enter the bivvy allowing you to continue to watch the water.

Price: $84.99 (was £129.99)

www.total-fishing-tackle.com

Not everyone has an unlimited budget to spend on a bedchair, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get a reliable and comfortable bed. Prologic have released the Prologic Avenger to cater to all anglers, and we have to say, for the price, it is very impressive. 

Available in a six or eight leg version, they also feature a completely flat profile as well as a sculpted, padded mattress designed to offer exceptional comfort and support whilst on the bank. The padded sides are constructed in a 600D waterproof camo fabric that gives the bedchair a very premium finish to it. The fully adjustable legs come with sturdy mudfeet to ensure you can create a level and stable structure regardless of the terrain.

The double-hinged fold-flat frame is something we usually see on more expensive models, but Prologic have included it on the Avenger to allow you to fold the bedchair up super compact with your bag on it if you wish to do so.

Pros

  • Really comfortable
  • Very light bedchair, great for mobile angling

The bedchair offers a completely flat sleeping profile, with just a single leg at the head end to reduce the weight whilst still offering great support. The mattress is tensioned via a rope system, so it gives a very firm, comfortable bed to sleep on, particularly favourable if you like a firm mattress or suffer with back pain.

The legs are all fully adjustable and have swivelling mud feet on to stop the bedchair sinking into wet ground and grip uneven surfaces. The bedchair also packs down with a double hinge system, so you can leave the sleeping bag on the bedchair if you wish. All things considered, a great, budget bedchair that won't leave you wishing you spent more.

Pros

  • Superb value
