The Bank Boss Chair is the top of the range fishing chair form the TV celebrity fisherman Matt Hayes company TF Gear (Total Fishing Gear)

In terms of specialist fishing chair it ticks all of the boxes. It has a fully adjustable back rest so you can get that comfy position for spending hours lazing on the fishing banks, and many users of this chair have commented on how comfortable this chair really is. Part of how comfortableness can probably be credited it its totally independent legs that can be adjusted to suit any terrain or sloping bank to within reason. The legs also have large mud feet on the base of them preventing the feet from sinking in to muddy banks.

Back on to ticking the boxes, the back rest is also adjustable so that you can get the right angle. The main seating area of this chair are also hevily padded, so as I mentioned above users of this chair really are very happy with the comfortableness of it. As if having a comfortable chair to sit and fish from all day wasn’t good enough there are a number of attachments and add-ons available, and this means that you can use rod rests, bite alarms and feeder arms when you are fishing from a concrete or other solid surface. It really does get rid of the need for hammering bank sticks in to the ground and scaring fish off in the first place. In terms of the attachments you can get there are:

• Tri-pod feeder arm
• Buzz bars
• Rear rest pole
• Rod rest set
• Umbrella arm

The one negative that people have commented on with this chair is the weight of it. Personally I don’t think that this is such an issue, if you want a lighter chair you have to be prepared to pay for and with the bargain price of the TF Gear Bank Boss Chair you can hardly be quibbling over a few grams!

Of all of the fishing chair markets the specialist anglers marketplace is the broadest. They are the hardcore fishermen (and fisherwoman) that are highly passionate and enthusiastic about their sport. They will camp out for nights, travel thousands of miles and endure treacherous weather for that once in a lifetime fish. These are the people that are willing to part with their cash to get the best fishing chairs that they can afford. The willingness of these anglers to spend money on their sport has driven traditional fishing manufacturers to develop sophisticated fishing chairs that suit a range of budgets and fishing styles. Many of the products now in the specialist market have very close relations to the camping market, a they almost need to serve the same purpose.

The fishing chairs that are aimed at these specialist anglers focus on comfort and although weight is considered, it is not at the expense of a very restful chair… as you can imagine these fishing chairs are going to get a lot of ‘seating’ time. Almost all of the almost specialist fishing chairs will come with the features mentioned in the homepage  article :

• adjustable legs – it is important that these are independently adjustable.
• wide feet – providing a stable base on muddy surfaces,
• adjustable backrests – to tweak the seating angle to perfection
• adjustable feet rests if it’s a bed chair.
• heavily padded seating – it’s all about comfort.
• elastic sprung seating to further enhance the comfort of the chair.
• Some chairs even come with add on accessories such as a bait table and rod holders – see the Korum Accessory Chair  or the TF Gear Boss Bank Chair The choices available are endless, as I mentioned in the home page post there are many things to look out for.

When first introduced actually getting hold of a decent fishing chair was a task in its self. With the rapid increase in popularity of the Carp fishing market more and more manufacturers and distributors jumped onboard to satisfy the growing demand for specialist angling products. There are now many good online and physical retailers stocking all of the chairs available. As a staring place see this list of 2009 specialist fishing chairs

Fishing Chair Design

There are a wide range of fishing chairs available on the market. The sort of fishing chair you will be largely dictated by the type of fishing you do.  (see choosing the right fishing chair post) This site aims to cover from the simple fold out ‘camping style’ fishing chairs to the more sophisticated carp and specialist fishing chairs. Chairs designed for fishing purposes have many criteria to satisfy other than being comfy. When you are looking to get a new or replacement fishing chair you should be keep a look out for certain features.
 

Fishing Chair Features

• Lightweight
  Your going to have to carry or wheel your fishing chair to where you want to fish, you’re ideally looking for a chair with an aluminium frame that will keep the weight down.
• Exposure resistant.
  You don’t want your fishing chair corroding, going mouldy or seizing up. Similarly to the above ‘lightweight’ criteria you’ll be looking for an aluminium frame that’s either anodised or powder coated, both of these processes will stop the frame from oxidising. The actually seating fabric will need to be made from a water resistant fabric. If you have a chair with padding, the water resistant outer fabric will prevent it from getting wet.
• Have adjustable legs
  We all know there’s nothing more frustrating that a wobbly chair (and I doubt you’ll have a supply of beer mats). Make sure that the fishing chair you buy has four adjustable legs that also have a good range of adjustment.
• Broad feet or ‘mud feet’
  This leads on from the ‘adjustable legs’ point. Unless you have large broad swivelling feet it’s going to make a lot of difference if your legs are adjustable or not. You’re going to sink! Bad news – get the broadest feet you can find.
• Have an adjustable seating position
  If you’re going for a carp or specialist type fishing chair make sure that it has an adjustable back. This coupled with adjustable legs will give you an almost infinite range of seating postions.
• Good padding
  A lot of the specialist fishing chairs will have padding, make sure that it’s durable and thick – you’ll be spending a lot of time sat in it.
• Compact
  Regardless of the type of angling you do, your fishing chair will need to be small enough to transport to where you want to fish and to pack in your car.

If you bare all of the above in mind you shouldn’t go too far wrong with your next chair purchase. See a list of the most current fishing chair manufacturers.
