Wild Norfolk Chalk Stream Fly Fishing
Wild Norfolk Chalk Stream Fly Fishing.
During my annual stay at Narborough Fisheries I managed to land 2 days fly fishing on this beautiful Norfolk Chalk Stream, the River Nar. Not the best conditions to fish with a dry fly but still a great couple of days.
Staying in the Tentbox Cargo roof tent at Narborough Fisheries I also had a chance to do some fly fishing for some of the beautiful stocked Rainbow trout in Willow lake.
I took the tentbox awning room with me and set this up alongside the tentbox cargo and had a really peaceful 3 days camping at Narborough Fisheries.

They are available on request.

A well presented video. There are many reviews for the S300 on Ytube, unfortunately none of the reviews have yet to show that if you do not charge the S300 for 2 weeks, then you will find a completely dead battery, as the Quiescent current draw is very high. This renders this unit useless as a reliable emergency backup power source. Fully charge the unit & then let it stand for 2 weeks & see what capacity you have left after that time. Its a known to Allpowers fault, that they wont offer a fix for, which is a shame as the build quality & options this unit offers is very good for the price.
That is something I have just noticed as well
I bought mine, left it for 12 days and it lost 10 percent, so I can kinda believe that.

@@Vildmark Wow, that is impressive!
I enjoyed that bro..... What a beautiful part of the world 👌😎
As you, I really enjoy the planning process as well :). Thank you for all the inspiration you provide through your videos! You've also reminded me of what great and magical adventures are to be had in Glaskogens Naturrreservat (where I basically spent a Summer a long time ago) via your videos, as well as all this interesting and insightful material you've released on the topic of packrafting. I'm aiming to try packrafting out in the Summer (in Tiveden, Sweden) and then decide on what gear to get. You seem very happy with your MRS Microraft and The Flex PR packraft bag. I am looking to see what options there are for a "raftpack"/"packraft" bag here in Sweden. So far, I've lucked out but I am hoping I'll be able to get better answers in the coming months.
Maybe I should add as well that weather here in mid-Sweden has been sunny and warm basically the last two weeks. Here's hoping you'll be able to soak up some sun when you get here and that the bug-situation won't be too bad.
Thank you so much for the reply and thank you for becoming a patreon. There are a few Swedish Packrafting companies and groups on Facebook. I’ll send you the details to them when I get the chance. Packrafting is a great sport for the Swedish environment, just wish I lived there permanently. The MRS Microraft is a great packraft and many people in Sweden / Norway use these.
@@Vildmark Thank you :)
There is a german company called current-raft, they have also specific bike rafting model(s).
What brand is your PFD? Make and model if you can please. Hard to locate here 🇨🇦. Good idea about using an emergency blanket. I will too going fwd
Those are not made and tbh not recommended after I’ve used it for a while. I have since found the buoy boy by Anfibio which is perfect. czcams.com/video/ydMdA8rGeMM/video.htmlsi=qvJHA3pPvqQ5qa1z www.packrafting-store.de/?wsa=cj1bi35ed12fd

A little flask for nightcaps? 😀 hope its a fun trip.
Oh yeah. Forgot to add that I decant a bottle of rum into a plastic bottle to save weight.
Next to going on a trip I get a lot of enjoyment planning and getting kit ready for the trip. Looking forward to your adventure. Thanks Jim
For me the same! It’s perfect for the cold dark winter nights, researching, planning and preparing.
Where is the carpark mate?
Bottom of glen etive
@@Vildmark thank you
Don’t buy this against the rain. It’s worthless.
Great video! We have a big question for our next bikepacking trip or Bikerafting trip...We have to decide between a MRS Microraft or Anfibio Rebel 2K? We know that there are some packrafts like the Caribou designed for this adventure but we have to choose between Micro and Rebel 2k. Both with sprydeck, 840d at the bottom...What do you think? thank you!
Rebel 2k is lighter, if you’re picking internal storage then the Anfibio method is a lot better than the tizip. Never tried a bike on either as there not designed for that shape of load but many people do use them like this.
It this zip worth it?? Is seems to create a very weak point and possibly shorten the life of the raft
Very tricky question to answer. It is worth it, it won’t shorten the life of the raft as when it fails you just replace the zip.
I'd love to try this packraft, but apparently Anfibio ships to everywhere but the U.S.
Have you asked them.
@@Vildmark Sent an RFI yesterday, no reply as of yet.
Yeah, they can't do U.S./Canadian shipping due to insurance. They did provide a potential workaround with some kind of alternate shipping service. I imagine buyer assumes all risk at that point though. Kind of ridiculous that they can ship to Iran "safely" but not the North American continent.
@@ryanbird5142 Did you buy one? Im in US too but like the idea of this raft.
@@curtisheyman4473 No sir, for the risk involved etc, im just getting the Alpacka Forager. Its a proven system, its made here and despite being a little more expensive at least I dont have to worry about it being lost in shipping between mainland Europe and the U.S. from a 3rd party mistake.
Can you use the heated water for coffee or to go inside one of those meals that require hot water? Or is ir contaminated by the chemical reaction inside the bag?
Contaminated
Great video. Not sure about the calamari mind you
How do i find exactly those "elastic bungees"? What are they called?

Fantastic video, really enjoyed that Martin, top stuff

A full English and toast along with a brew! I'm sold, they deserve a sub 😅. Top video matey 👍
Cheers pal! See in learning the Bolton slang!
@Vildmark We'll have you converted yet! Although if you can get me a job down Norfolk/Suffolk then I'll happy start speaking East Country 😂
A great pack, this isn't the Singi Stubben - just the 'Stubben'. The Singi version is the new version and nowhere near as nice 👍
Yeah I prefer this model. The orange interior really works.
Would you put a bike on it?
In a nutshell no, many people do but I prefer to use equipment that is designed specifically for the task. The Alpacka Carribou is designed to carry a bike. It has an upturned bow, fixings for straps in the correct place for a bike and the bike sits perfect on it. Many people use the Microraft for a bike but I’d prefer to use the correct gear. Here’s the caribou in use: czcams.com/video/JmMEKeX117w/video.htmlsi=134gdZnspe3FwoMQ
@@Vildmark Thanks for reply. Something to ponder on😊😊
I am looking forward to a few days at 3rivers in June. I'm glad the pubs up and running after the flooding, my dog always takes me there.
Brilliant campsite and great access to the river.
I so have to explore the Weaveney again, used to fish it when I lived near Diss. So when fishing season opens any planned fishing lessons for one Simon, A bloke in the woods?
Simon isn’t that keen on fishing
Locks inn... One of my fave places on the Broads. Thanks for a great video again. I can't wait for the fishing season to start so I can go after them chub and perch on the Waveney from my packraft.
Some great areas near there for perch.
No Kokopelli?
Never tried them. Perhaps that’s one to tryout
Do you know what the weight capacity numbers mean exactly? I ordered the Anfibio Sigma TXLB+ yesterday. It supposedly has a weight capacity of 200 kg (or 130 kg with the self-bailer Venturi funnel opened), however, if I roughly estimate the total volume of the air chambers, it should have more than 200 l displacement even in an emergency situation with the raft filled up with water to the brim, the buoyancy of the multi-mat floor not even included. I can only guess that the capacity numbers are calculated for a certain design water line, however, a calm lake and white water are different animals. So what's your take on weight capacity? At what point are they only recommendations and when does it actually get critical? Is there any reason not to slightly exceed the numbers e.g. on a calm lake or for short river crossings? What exactly is the risk? Sinking or just getting a bit more wet? Especially the 130 kg with self-bailing seem a bit low and I don't understand what would happen. Maybe weight capacity would be a great topic for a dedicated video(?). Thanks for the video. Liked and subscribed.
The 130kg (I’m guessing) is due to the pressure required to open the self bailer allowing water to flood into cockpit. As with the other numbers I’m not sure, I’ll hazard a guess that after that the packraft won’t be stable or handle very well.
Total respect to you for the job you do, hopefully you got some chill time
Thanks.
Looks like covehithe
Good guess

Hi, really enjoyed this series on the Waveney, I,m planning a trip next month by canoe for scole to oulten broad and beyond next month but I’m struggling to find a decent canoe guide for the upper part of the river. Any advice would be welcome, thanks
Don’t know any guides up that way. It’s easy to navigate.
Many, many years ago my grandad had been fishing with lug of the harbour and had no luck and went home(Norwich). My uncle returned home after work and asked how he got on and was told"no luck but I have 6 lug left" you didn't throw nothing away back then. Uncle decided to go back to Gorleston with the lug, walked past and asked the other fishermen if there's caught anything and the replies were "no". He went to end and with 6 lug he left with 6 cod not codling. He loves to tell that tale 🤣
The Vikings used to boil it in urine, it contains saltpeter(Potassium nitrate) used in black powder and explosives. And boil it for 12 too 24 hours. Boil it that long with ash in it too.
Would the 210D floor be an issue when scrapping on occasional rock or two? I really love this one, but I'm on fence due to the floor. In most cases I'm gonna be on slow flowing rivers and lakes, but I might find myself on rivers with low water levels and or WW II... would this one handle it well? Thanks! :)
It’s a brilliant packraft and I’m taking this one on expedition this summer. It will handle the odd scrape depending on what it’s scraping on, speed the packraft is moving and if there’s weight above it or not (critical point). If you’re worried about it get a packraft with a stronger floor, like the Microraft. Better to have a strong floor than keep repairing it.
@@Vildmark thanks for the reply, Microraft feels too big and heavy for me, I'd like to keep the weight and packability down to about 2kg boat itself.. I have narrowed it down to Delta MX, Sigma TX, MRS Surveyor, Rebel 2k and Revo CL... Also the Norseraft Loki appeals to me, but it's probably too heavy. I want to balance the weight and packability (I'm mainly backpacker/hiker), speed, handling, WW capability.. I'd probably spend most of the time on slow flowing rivers max WW II and some lakes.. I would go for MRS Surveyor without a thought, but I don't know whether it will be good for this sort of things or not. With that in mind I'm gravitating towards Rebel 2K. With your experience of packrafting can you perhaps recommend something that would fit the bill the best?

I am a forager also so I'll add wild edible microgreens aka baby plants from nature which have everything your boby requires to live.. they are added chopped and raw for maximum nutrients.. if I did cook anything it would only be the black pepper and potato flakes to keep maximum nutrients. Everything else can be added after it's cooled down.. baby nettle microgreens are packed with energy and nutrients.. more nutrition that anything from a shop could offer by far... Hopefully I will bump into you out on the water one day lmao.. have a beautiful day my friend and thank you for these videos.. 🙂🏝️🙏🚣♂️ oh and caffeine powder 100% pure extract
