What are the most useful comfort-focused bivvy accessories?

Comfort accessories include bivvy tables, water carriers, automatic taps, bivvy hooks, mozzie repellers, cup holders, and storage pouches. These items help keep your bivvy organised, reduce clutter, and make long sessions more enjoyable. Most anglers add comfort accessories gradually as they refine their setup and find what makes life easier on the bank.

Are bivvy tables worth having when fishing?

Yes—bivvy tables are extremely useful for keeping essentials tidy and accessible. They provide a stable surface for tying rigs, preparing food, or placing small items like alarms, tools, or torches. Tables with folding legs save space, pack down quickly, and stop gear from getting lost on damp ground during night sessions.

What does a mosquito or midge repeller do in a bivvy?

A repeller like the Flextail Moxxy creates a protective zone around your bivvy by emitting a heat-activated or scented cartridge that deters mosquitos and midges. It’s ideal for summer nights, riverbank sessions, or when fishing near reedbeds. These devices offer a quiet, chemical-free way to keep biting insects away so you can relax comfortably.

What are bivvy hooks used for?

Bivvy hooks attach to the inner frame or ceiling of your shelter, giving you a convenient place to hang lights, coats, wet gear, alarms, or accessories like power banks. They help keep the floor space clear and organised, making the bivvy easier to move around in—especially during long sessions or poor weather.
