Just wanted some experience and if it’s worth paying the money for one, I have a frontier X for my normal bivvy but need something a little bigger to fit 2 bedchairs in for when she comes The Trakker SLX is another bivvy that comes in a 2-man variant. This is a high-quality shelter that is perfect for the angler who wants a bivvy that’s big enough to accommodate two people without being a burden to transport. You can’t go wrong with Trakker. I have several friends who swear by Trakker Brollys and Bivvies and they fish in some pretty brutal conditions.

I have 2 the Solar Spider and the Solar Undercover brolly system both extremely well made with quality parts You can also save weight by leaving additional items such as storm poles, groundsheets, overwraps, and extra pegs at home if you’re concerned about overloading yourself, your carp barrow, or your dinghy. 4. Do You Need an All-Season Bivvy? If you and your partner enjoy fishing together or you have a friend that you often work with to bag a few carp, you may be looking for a 2-man bivvy. Larger shelters are great for social sessions and carping holidays. They also help save space if you’re constantly fishing together with someone. This article should’ve given you a clear idea of the best 2-man bivvies on the market, their greatest features, and who they’re best for. Hopefully, our buyer’s guide has also given you some food for thought, so you can make an informed decision when purchasing your new shelter.Ventilation is all well and good, but unless you can leave the vents open in the rain you’ll still get condensation inside the bivvy when you’re zipped in. Dual-layer bivvies, overwraps, or other means to keep the rain out while letting air in will allow you to keep air circulating no matter the conditions. It’s also compatible with the R-Series internal dome. This provides you with a second skin inside the shelter that essentially acts as an overwrap. This helps insulate the bivvy and eliminate condensation. The SK-Tek bivvy has a 5,000 mm hydrostatic head which definitely isn’t as high as some of the other shelters on our list but it’s more than sufficient to keep you dry in all but the worst European conditions. With front and rear mesh panels you can ensure you get decent airflow inside the bivvy to keep you cool in summer and reduce condensation in the cooler months. If you want a 2-man bivvy to accommodate more kit and provide a bit more comfort for holiday-style sessions, you may be concerned about weight. In this case, I’d opt for something such as the Trakker SLX or Sonik SK-TEK. These bivvies have a large internal space but cut down weight by using fewer ribs and lightweight fabric.

Thanks bud I didn’t mean the material difference In colour I just meant build quality and if it’s a decent bivvy that’s all bud 🤣 sorry should of been more specific with that but I don’t care about which colour I get lol In that case I can happy recommend for you. It's well made, easy to put up and whilst I've only used the bivvy a handful of times, the brolly has taken some abuse and has stood up to everything so I'm very happy with the build quality. Both are very good prices so I would suggest go for it It’s super easy to put this bivvy up, and the take-down couldn’t be simpler. However, it’s a bit on the heavy side coming in at 27 kg plus an extra 7 kg with the accessories. This is something to think about if you’re planning on using the bivvy regularly rather than for long-stay sessions where you can park your vehicle close to the swim. The Fox R-Series XL is another spacious bivvy for 2 people that’s built to withstand the wear and tear of carp fishing all year round. I’m a big fan of Fox shelters. I currently use the Fox EOS Brolly System and used to love my old Frontier Bivvy.There’s enough headroom to stand up straight inside the shelter and plenty of room for two bedchairs, a large table, and enough luggage and bait for a year’s worth of carping!

Of course, the first feature you should look for in a 2-man bivvy is internal space. However, there are several other features that you should look out for when purchasing a new bivvy for 2 people. The waterproofness of a bivvy is measured in millimetres and is called the hydrostatic head (hh). The larger the number on the hh rating, the more waterproof the fabric is. Having adequate ventilation will maximise airflow inside the bivvy. This will help keep it cool during the warmer months and reduce condensation during the cooler months. Weighing in at 10.4 kg, this bivvy is extremely lightweight, considering it’ll accommodate two bedchairs. Now, this shelter certainly isn’t as big as some of the others on the list but if you and your angling partner want to be a bit more mobile, this could be the bivvy for you.The Sonik SK-Tek 2-man bivvy is a fantastic lightweight shelter for a great price. If you’re on a bit of a budget, this is a fantastic shelter. I haven’t tried this shelter but I love Sonik’s Xtractor Rod series and their SKX Bite Alarms. They are a “budget brand” and not all of their products are fantastic, but they definitely offer quality without the need to break the bank, as long as you know where to look. The bivvy features a rectangular X-Frame design with a hydroX 300D ripstop shell. It has a sewn-in PVC groundsheet, removable flysheet and plenty of mesh ventilation panels on all sides. The Solar Undercover 2-man bivvy is a pram hood style bivvy that’s built to the highest standards. It’s big enough to accommodate two anglers, their bedchairs, and all their luggage.
