JRC Extreme TX Bivvy 1 Man Wrap
JRC is famous in the angling industry for its continued high quality of production and design. You’ll struggle to find an angler who hasn’t been bowled over with the standard of an item of JRC gear and many anglers who’ve used JRC tackle return time and time again. This Extreme TX Bivvy One Man Wrap is no different and it is the perfect edition to the tackle collection of the angler who already owns and loves the original bivvy. Overwraps have mutated from a novelty accessory to make bankside life that little more comfortable to an absolute essential for the angler who wants to be able to tackle the bank year round without fear. Not only do they prevent in-bivvy condensation and provide additional warmth but they also provide additional storage space in the bivvy. This is ideal if you’re someone who likes to occasionally enjoy a longer session but who doesn’t want to have to invest in a two man bivvy in order to get the additional space that you require from your extra gear.
The JRC Extreme TX Bivvy One Man Wrap does just that as it fits over the storm peak on the original bivvy. This provides you with a useful front porch area, which ideal for the storage of additional bait, which you might want to keep cooler outside your bivvy rather than in it, your barrow, or other luggage items. This is a great way of getting the extra storage space you require for a longer session – when you’ll likely need more gear to keep you and the fish going over a longer period of time – without you having to invest in a two man bivvy or and external shelter that takes up excess bank space.
As with the rest of the products in JRC’s incredible bivvy range, this overwrap is manufactured from Hydra-Tex. This is an especially designed bivvy material which offers a hydrostatic head rating of 20,000mm – a waterproof rating greater than most top end flotation suits. To prevent any leakage, the Extreme TX Bivvy One Man Wrap also features taped seams. This ensures that you have a completely waterproof package with can more than hold its own against anything that the Great British weather throws at it. What’s more, this material is also completely breathable. This ensures that moisture (both from your breath an any damp tackle you have stored in your bivvy) can evaporate out of the bivvy and the overwrap – negating the change that you’ll be woken by drips from the ceiling of your bivvy. The overwrap comes supplied with its own heavy duty pegs, too. These allow you to approach every swim and scenario with confidence, ensuring that you won’t have to waste vital minutes on the bank trying to force your pegs into the tumultuous terrain.
The JRC Extreme TX Bivvy One Man Wrap comes supplied in its own practical zip bag. This keeps the overwrap in one place, ensuring that you don’t have to worry about loosing pegs. It also ensures that you don’t have to worry about opening your overwrap only to find it has sustained damage in storage or transit as this bivvy bag keeps it nicely protected. Since it weighs in at only 3.2kg, you could comfortably store this overwrap permanently in the base of your rucksack or barrow – ready for use when you need it the most.
If you’re looking for a top quality overwrap which will give you an additional layer of protection from the elements then you can’t go wrong with this. Purpose designed for the JRC Extreme TX Bivvy One Man, you’ll never be wrestling on the bank in dire conditions, trying to fit your overwrap over your bivvy.
