Fox Camolite Large Recliner Chair

Fox Camolite Large Recliner Chair – The King of Bankside Comfort

When it comes to long sessions, your chair is just as important as your bed. The Fox Camolite Large Recliner Chair is the “King Size” option in the Camolite range, specifically designed for anglers who want the absolute maximum in height, width, and back support. If you find standard chairs too restrictive or too low to the ground, this Large (XL) model is the upgrade you’ve been looking for.

At Gerry’s Fishing, we highly recommend the Large version for anyone who suffers from back fatigue or simply wants a higher “throne” on the bank. Featuring a significantly taller backrest and a higher seat adjustment, it allows you to sit naturally and keep a clear eye on the water without the strain of a smaller, more cramped chair.

Key Features & Performance

• Maximum Support: The extra-high backrest (73cm) features thick padding in the head and neck area, ensuring you stay comfortable even during 48-hour stints.

• Luxury Materials: A high-density foam mattress topped with warm micro-fleece keeps you insulated from the cold, while the Fox Camolite polyester trim provides a hard-wearing, stylish finish.

• One-Touch Leg Adjustment: No more fumbling with screw-locks; the spring-loaded mechanism allows you to level the chair perfectly on uneven banks with a single click.

• Custom Recline Control: The heavy-duty cam wheel allows you to move from a bolt-upright position for eating or tying rigs to a fully reclined position for a quick afternoon snooze.

• Built to Last: The reinforced steel frame is equipped with Leg Locks to ensure the chair remains stable and secure, regardless of the terrain.

Technical Specifications (Large Model)

Where to Use This Chair

• Extended Sessions: Perfect for week-long trips where a comfortable seat is essential for your long-term posture and comfort.

• Large Bivvy Setups: Its footprint fits perfectly in modern 1-man XL or 2-man bivvies, providing a high-profile seat that is easy to get in and out of.

• Tall or Heavy Anglers: The reinforced frame and extended leg height (up to 56cm) make this the best choice for larger anglers who find standard chairs too small or difficult to stand up from.

Pro Tip from the Gerry’s Team

Because this is a larger chair, it sits higher than most. This is a massive advantage when fishing behind tall reeds or high flood-defence walls on rivers, as it gives you a much better vantage point over the water. To keep the spring-loaded legs working perfectly, give them a quick wipe with a dry cloth after a muddy session to prevent grit from entering the mechanism!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this chair much heavier than the standard version?

At 7.5kg, it is only 500g heavier than the standard model, but it offers a much larger seating area and a taller backrest. For the sake of half a kilogram, the extra comfort is well worth the trade-off.

How high does the seat actually go?

The legs extend to a maximum seat height of 56cm. This is significantly higher than most fishing chairs, making it ideal for anyone who has knee issues or finds low chairs difficult to stand up from.

Does it fold flat for transport?

Yes, despite its size, the frame is designed to fold completely flat. It will sit comfortably on a barrow or in the boot of a car, though we do recommend checking the folded dimensions (84cm x 70cm) to ensure it fits your specific barrow setup.
