JRC Defender Armchair

Product Information

A lightweight (the lightest actually) but strong fishing chair, which, if you pushed me for a criticism, it would be that it felt bulky to carry. Filled with high density foam inside a durable polyester cover, this is a hard wearing, comfortable armchair that offers complete functionality whatever your fishing style, and wherever you frequently find yourself in terms of swim action. To be honest, I would rather have a lightweight fishing chair that is easy to carry, feels comfortable and will last me a few years. Most offer the option to extend the legs to accommodate uneven terrain. Find one with mud feet because these will offer extra grip in sloping swims.

For a low-profile chair, I found it easy to get in and out of. I have previously owned a fishing chair from a well-established brand, but it was a struggle to get out of at times. This is not good if your bite alarms go off! In fact, the inner mattress has micro fleece sculpted into it, which feels very comfortable as I sank into it….. There are plenty of styles, from fully padded luxury chairs to those that you can place onto your bedchair and tie rigs are eat from. Weighing 7kg, it is heavier than most chairs, but folds away compact enough to position it on your barrow. If you don’t require all the fishing chair accessories, it is available as a standalone feeder chair.At only 3.9kg, due to the aluminium alloy used in the manufacturing process, this is the lightest fishing chair we could find! I found the chair to be very lightweight at only 5.6kg, which is great for carrying to and from the lake. Also, the chair is very easy to set up and take down. Designed around a robust, high-tensile steel frame, this armchair features a multi-action recliner system, effortlessly enabling you to find your perfect position, and optimise the comfort, support, and convenience of the JRC Defender fishing chair. Comfortable arm rests ensure total relaxation and support, whether you’re tying rigs, chopping bait, or just sipping a crafty bankside brew.

It made me feel relaxed, and I didn’t feel the need to keep moving around to get comfortable. It certainly isn’t the ‘best lightweight fishing chair’ on the list, but perhaps is the most luxurious. As a sidenote, I would agree that this is probably the best lightweight fishing chair for feeder fishing due to its 5kg weight. The Adobe fishing chair also comes with a few great features such as multi-adjustable arm supports that allow the angler to recline into a comfortable position.

There is an extension bar at the front, so you can fish on steep banks if you wanted, but what about the rest of your gear?

Coarse

Weighing a hefty 9.3kg, I would suggest this is tailored to anglers who fish longer sessions regularly, where you are more likely to lug this onto a fishing barrowor trolley as you fathom out your journey to your swim or peg. Their challenge to anglers, “expect more”, is one they never fail to live up to, exceeding even the most demanding expectations, thanks to the passion and expertise that fuels this brand’s drive to offer a bigger and better range of equipment for anglers of every discipline. I really like this chair because it offers a great seating position, almost like a throne. All the accessories were decent enough, and set up was a breeze.

I was impressed with the quality of the padding, and the material used is Oxford fabric which is breathable, letting you stay cool on those hot days fishing. Also I love the name! It screams “I am the biggest fishing chair you can buy”, but this does not necessarily mean it’s the best fishing chair.Filled with high density foam inside a durable polyester cover, this is a hard wearing, comfortable chair that offers complete functionality whatever your fishing style, and wherever you frequently find yourself in terms of swim action. Whether you are kitted out to fish for a day, or a week, you should try and find a chair that’s under 5kg. The Sonik SK-TEC recliner is one of the lightest fishing chairs on the market, weighing in at just 6.3kg. It’s also very compact and easily portable, making it ideal for any fishing sessions.
