Stools

[Hovis]

No not that type, but the type for sitting on. I fish in a mobile manner for 99% of my fishing and I'm in need of something to sit on. Every chair I've tried has been too bulky so I'm considering a stool of some sort. I wanted to hear what others think. Maybe 3 Hazle rods with a leather of canvas seat?

Hovis, sit on your unhooking mat! A three legged stool will be a disaster on anything but the firmest ground.
Of course you could use a small wicker basket, mine has no legs so will sit flats, trouble is anything with legs will tip on uneven ground.

Obviously the advantage of a tripod stool is using it on uneven ground, the only real disadvantage I`ve found, is the level of comfort to ones posterior. I decided on a conventional stool, but with a back rest, I bought the Shakespeare version*. When on reasonably flat ground, its nice having a back rest, but it folds down if not required.

*They usually retail for around £13 or thereabouts....

Barbour Border and foldable foam pad? Or as Paul suggests a creel...

[Hovis]

I'd love a small creel but have yet to find one that will take 15st

I use the Lafuma folding camping chair...

I always rather fancied one of these (with the addition of 'mud feet' of course !) ... but who would take the other end of the handles from Mrs. AC ???

I use a folding stool for short trips.

My stool was £9.99 from Lidl (with a rucksack attached). It's pretty comfy and withstands my 17st.

Now that looks perfect but £85! It's a big investment.
