Whats a good day shelter ? a good day shelter is something that keeps the wind and the rain off and its lightweight and easy to put up. It doesnt matter if it has a 'name' on it or how much it costs.

er...a brolley would be good. Just like Frothey says.
Just make sure it says clearly "CARP BROLLEY" on it.

You can get a 60" flat back brolly with 2 velcro or zipped flaps at the back so you can ship a pole back, thats if you use a pole on your match fishing. I think wavelock do one of these meaning you can remove the center pole and fix the brolley down with 2 extendable poles fixed to the ribs at the front, then all you would need is overwrap or winter skin for it for your day and night carp fishing sessions.

Korum shelter.
TFG day shelter. (Flap in the back for a pole to go through)
or if its a umbrella you after for shelter... (Shop around. you might find cheaper)

I use the Chub Snooper shelter its large enough for two big chairs or eeven a bed chair layed across the front. its very strong and durable as well as being light and compact when put away. You can get these for about £50.00.
I have had so many people come up and rant about how goodthese shelters are after owning the Korum ones

If you move swims fairly frequently just invest in some good quality clothing. or if you need to shelter from the winds get your self a brolly, bish bash bosh job done. Save’s messing about dismantling a shelter.
I use a JRC sti, had it a couple of years now and is still in tip top condition.It comes with an over wrap if I ever need to get out of the weather. The brolly it self takes me les than 5 mins to put up, (never actuality timed it but its up in no time) takes a little longer to put away cos the bag is a little tight with the ground sheet in, it looks a little like the Chub Snooper Shelter Lite shown above and for £59.99 the chub one would be a good purchase and do everything you want from a shelter. If I had the cash and could go out get a new shelter tomorrow I would go for Trakker Pioneer Specimen Ultralite. They are the dog’s dangleshttp://www.bivvies.co.uk/brolly-systems/trakker_pioneer_specimen_ultralite.html
