mack Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Right, my backs knackered from carrying all my gear accross muddy fields that I cant get to in the landy. Ive been thinking about using some kind of trolley. I know fishermen use such things but I wondered if anyone on here uses one and could let me know what kind of thing works?

deny essex Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 a friend of mine uses a fishing trolley with a fold up wheel, bit like a flatbed wheelbarrow, has a homemade shoulder brace for weight support and he harness'es his springer to it and calls "mush", ive driven it dog and all and it works when not too muddy or on plough, the dog gives it a little extra paw power. fortunately dogs not come across a bolting rabbit , yet !

henry d Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 (edited) This is where I got mine http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Browse/catal...ier/7792931.htm But mine wasn`t that dear although this one has pneumatic tyres which could make it easier again to wheel across plough etc.The tyres on mine are wide and flat which is good unless it`s very frosty,and that throws the gear off,or sticky,where it throws mud all over me oops the link only gives you sports accessories,on the L click on fishing then click on coarse fishing accessories,hope this helps(I think its the way forward ) Edited February 19, 2006 by henry d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTMS Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Anybody tried the ski method/flat tray instead of going throught the muck,mud or ruts go over them Look at the last televised trip to the antartic solo.
