If you spend a lot of time at your favourite fishing spot in all weathers then you need to read this article! When you spend a lot of time on the shores of a lake or on banks of a river then you should seriously consider having a fishing bivvy to protect you from the weather. A fishing bivvy is the name giving to small tents designed with the task of protecting anglers from the weather and to store their gear. There are a lot of different types of bivvies with lots of excellent options to choose from these are my five top picks!
