The Korum Accessory Fishing Chair
With specialist fishing chairs now being well established, products are now beginning to move up to the next level. Korum a UK based angling company have come up with the accessory chair. These guys invest serious time, energy and money in to the design and development of the products. Korum’s strap line is ‘Tacticle Angling Products’ and I think that describes them very well.
So what is the Accessory chair?
In essence the Accessory Chair is a stand alone chair that functions as an excellent specialist fishing chair in its own right. It has a number of features that make it stand out from the crowd, one such feature is its vertical leg system. Where most the legs of most chairs are at an angle greater the 90o to the seat base, the Accessory Chair legs are a 90o to the seat base i.e vertical. So what I hear you say, well this actually means that this chair has a significantly reduced foot prints allowing it to be used in smaller swims. It also means that you are not likely to trip over the legs. But… here is it’s defining feature, the Accessory fishing chair has a range of addons that can effectively be bolted to it.
What sort of addons?
I’ve mentioned below a small number of the accessories available:
- A telescopic feeder arm (form of rod rest)
- A tripod feeder arm.
- A spacer arm – this is essentially like you traditional bank stick – it has a thread at the top of it which will take all of the accessories that will fit a bank stick.
- A universal arm – same as above.
- A butt rest with arm
- A brolly arm
- A twin rod buzz bar
- A side tray – really useful for all sorts of bits and pieces and bait preparation.
- You can even get a kit that will temporary convert the chair in to a trolley so you can get all your kit to the swim in comfort.
At this point you may be asking why is that useful, well, how many times have you been fishing from a concrete or solid standing? How many times has the ground been that baked in the middle of summer that you can’t get a rod rest or umbrella in the ground? The Accessory Chair removes all of these issues because all of the accessories mount to the chair and therefore do not have to be put in the ground at all. Simple but ingenious. Is this the fishing chair for you? See the choosing the right fishing chair article.
Korum are not the only manufacturers of and accessory based chair though, TF gear produce the Bank Boss Chair
