The Fast & Light brolly has been hugely popular with its initial target angler, the guy who travels extra light and doesn’t want the hassle of having to carry a full-blown system around. Groundsheet, infill panel and any additional extras mean burdensome loads to these guys.
However, the brolly is so good that lots of other anglers took a shine to it – those fishing slightly longer session and wanting a little but more from their shelter.
So, by popular demand, Aqua introduced these wraps to create more significant coverage for those who want it.

Marc Coulson’s verdict - Money well spent, which is saying something for me! 5/5
As I mentioned in my diary piece this month, it was a bit of a trial getting hold of these, but after some serious time spent on the phone to various tackle shops across the UK, Johnson Ross and Climax Tackle eventually came up trumps.
To say I haven’t looked back since owning them would be an understatement because they have been a revelation.
I’ve never truly found a barrow that I was absolutely happy with until this one, which I happened to notice my mate Scott Day from Fox do a video for on the Fox YouTube channel.
I was struck by just how low Scott’s gear was when piled on to the barrow, something I’ve always tried to achieve but without success, despite not carrying what I would consider an overly large a amount of gear.
I only started wearing combat-style trousers after realising how quickly they dried out and how lightweight and comfortable they were, not to mention the numerous pockets, which always come in handy when out on the bank. I was keen to check these out after they landed in the office. Straightaway the feel was good, a light and stretchy material that I believe is nylon designed to feel like cotton. I have since found out they feel as good as they look and offer the wearer plenty of movement and super durability.
