Fox EOS II Brolly System

Description

The Fox EOS II Brolly System is a lightweight, ultra-fast-assembly shelter engineered to give budget-conscious anglers, youngsters, and mobile specialists professional-grade protection without breaking the bank. Built around a robust steel oval frame design, this brolly system combines the speed of an umbrella setup with the enclosed coverage of a mini bivvy, making it the ultimate grab-and-go shelter for day sessions and overnighters.Constructed from a durable 100% polyester khaki fabric boasting an 8,000mm hydrostatic head rating, it provides complete waterproofing against heavy bankside downpours. The material is backed by a specialized dark internal laminate coating that significantly reduces light penetration, keeping the interior darker for sleeping and noticeably cooler during scorching summer days. Equipped with khaki-colored mosquito mesh side panels, a versatile two-way letterbox door with mesh, PVC, and solid panel options, and a roll-back front for an open-fronted configuration, it delivers unmatched versatility on the bank.Technical Specifications

Pro TipWhen setting up in a strong crosswind, screw your storm poles into the front brolly ribs first before pegging down the rear skirt. Using the integrated rod strap on the side of the brolly keeps your made-up rod safe and secure against the ribs while you bait up or change rigs, preventing it from blowing over and cracking a carbon tip.Ideal Applications & Use Cases
