Thanks for making this video. Having a good beach shelter is important, the weather can change so quickly by the sea, also lets face it, even on a bright summers day, having some shade to retreat to can be an almost essential. I'm a big guy, so I think the space in this model would be ideal fro myself. Respect to yourself, enjoy watching an learn a lot from your videos, particularly the beach fishing ones.
Thanks for the review. I’m over in the Netherlands, and wonder why I don’t see shelters over here. Almost no one is using them while sea fishing at the beach. Why’s that you think? Almost everyone is using them over there right?
- Most of the time these are used for overnight fishing on beaches, or when the wind and rain would make fishing uncomfortable. What usual conditions do you get over there?
The Fish Locker Workshop I think Dutch weather is similar to English weather. Wind and rain are often there right beside us at the beach. That’s why I’m so surprised to see so many of them in videos of English fishermen. I’ll be sure to look into getting one myself. Thanks again!
Hi John I’ve been looking for one of these Bigaloo shelters but everywhere keeps telling me they are discontinued do you know anyone that is selling them, thank you

I think they stopped making this one, can't find it anywhere :( Such a great piece of kit.
due covid they are struggling to produce them i believe around November they will be back to the market :)

Hi John . Have just one question .Did you use longer tent pegs on shingle beach at chisel in 30 mph winds. ?
No. You just pile the shingle onto the flaps at the bottom and the thing could withstand 60 mph winds easy.
Bought the IMAX now wish I'd bought this instead
I need to get myself a shelter but there just so expensive.
Veals just emailed me to say they have in stock now. Hurry!

Perfect shelter for shoreline fishing 👍🏼
- It is a great shelter. The only issue is it is quite large so walking any great distance with it is a bit of a chore. 😊👍🏻
Someone sell me one of these. Please. Cannot find one anywhere.
how much do they cost ???
robert mansfield - Depends where you get them from mate. I got mine from Gerry’s. 👍🏻😊
