I can see a few disadvantages, such as the extra weight to carry to your swim, making the box unbalanced through the weight, not being able to fit it into really tight pegs and providing something to trip over while you're moving around, but what are the advantages?
The only one I can think of is keeping your feet out of the cold and wet. Are there others or should footplates be left to locomotive drivers?
I'd love to get a new seatbox because the one I have now is one of those old metal ones which weighs a ton and has plain legs which instantly sink and disappear into the mud.
However, looking at what's available they all seem to have winder trays, pole seats and footplates and I'm wondering whether they're going to be suitable for me or whether they're designed for carpers fishing on commercials.
I almost always fish rivers and I don't own a pole and don't have any desire to have one. All I'm looking for is something smart, light and comfortable into which I can fit my tackle, bait, flask and sandwiches.
Anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks in advance as always.
