| BARROWS | |
|
It seems
that every few months now a new barrow comes on
to the market, however the
ones that have stood the test of time is the
"Prestige Carp
Porter" followed by the "Chub
Barrow" and more recently
Fox,Nash and JRC have launched theirs. So lets take a look! | |
|
PRESTIGE CARP PORTER
Firstly I cannot praise this company enough, These barrows have lead the way from the start and are improving all the time. There are about 8 variations on the market from the original MK1 to the Power Porter and due to their design are easy to adapt yourself. | |
| Here
you can see the original
MK2 and (below) my own model fully loaded (note
the bedchair at full
length). Doing this you will get all your tackle to the swim in one go. | ![]() |

CHUB
BARROW
This has got to be the strongest barrow on the market. There is a 1 and 3 wheel version, lots of accessories i.e. barrow tidy, barrow organiser bags and their infinately adjustable strap (brilliant idea). The only fault is that it is too short for me! I have to make two trips, the bedchair cannot lay flat for an even load. | ![]() |
| FOX BARROW | |
![]() | A two wheeled copy of the Chub barrow but not as strong. |
|
NASH
BARROW
Another two wheeled copy, nice design but still not strong enough. | ![]() |
| JRC BARROW | |
![]() | Yet another two wheeled copy. Has a nice finish but still not strong enough.Tends to twist while steering around bends. |
| FORDWICH BARROW | |
|
This is a
home made barrow seen alot around Kent. A couple of ventures were started but the market was not ready. It is an 'L' shape design with two wheels, a rigid frame with mesh paneling. Easy to push, requires a stabilising bar for ease of loading. If this was marketed now I am sure it would take the market by storm!. | ![]() |
