Chub Outkast Shelter Mozzy Wrap

Chub Outkast Shelter Mozzy Wrap 

Mosquitos, gnats, midges, sand flies. The period between May and September is the main season for these horrible beasts to be seen out in force and feasting upon the blood of innocent anglers. The incessant whine which starts way over there…but suddenly it’s in your ear! Somehow, they know you can’t see the backs of your legs or the portion of your back that's exposed when your shirt rides up. In they swoop, ripping, tearing, showing no mercy, their fangs dripping in the moonlight…

Perhaps it’s not quite as bad as it’s described here but biting insects have plagued us since before we were human and anglers, with their love of water and banksides, are a top target. You can slather yourself in whatever concoction the SAS says it swears by at the moment, but the chances are that you’re still going to get bitten. By far the best prevention against flying, biting insects of any species is a physical barrier so we have good news if you’re the proud owner of a 1-man Chub Outkast Shelter.

This versatile angling shelter for the summer months has an open front but the Chub Outkast Shelter Mozzy Wrap fits snugly across this opening to keep out airborne menaces. The Mozzy Wrap has a mesh size which insects cannot crawl through and it’s tightly fitted to the shelter by means of elastic straps and pegs. The sections of the wrap which overlap with the shelter are made from the same highly waterproof material so you can rest assured that adding this wrap won’t compromise your weather protection.

A low-tech solution to an age-old problem, the Chub Outkast Shelter Mozzy Wrap has dimensions of 2.6m x 2.2m x 1.38m (W x D x H), weighs just 2kg, and comes supplied with tough T-pegs and an oversized carry bag. Because it covers the shelter’s rod strap, Chub has included another on the wrap to make sure you retain that helping hand when rigging your rods. Itchy, ratty, and bothered carp or coarse anglers alike will rejoice at the prospect of an easy night’s sleep behind the Chub Outkast Shelter Mozzy Wrap.
