A long carp outing often involves all night by the fishing rods, so the head support is not a minor detail of the equipment. Here the selection is directed to a fishing bed cushion, not to tourist models with indefinite fastening. The goal is a stable position when sleeping and quickly getting up at a signaller. This is important in long sessions when the rest between individual signals should be actually relaxed.

The practical difference to a simple pillow is fastening. Elastic belts allow the model to be fixed to the fishing bed, which is especially useful when the slope of the terrain displaces the sleeping system or you need to get up sharply. Put the seat belts on without twisting and check if they are not pressing the folding ties of the bed.

Weight of 0.6 kg also matters in the arrangement of luggage. For a short stationary outing, it is rarely a leading criterion, but when carrying a bed, tent and the rest of the carp inventory, it is good to be considered. Hold the pillow on an even part of the bed so as not to accumulate excess height under the neck.

On a warm evening, use the smooth face without adding a thick layer between it and the head, because that's how you lose the meaning of the different coating. In cold, turn the fibrous side up. If the weather changes overnight, the shift takes place and does not require a reshuffle of the entire sleeping area or a search for another pillow in the luggage.

After an outing, unscrew your seat belts, remove the glued grass, and check both faces for moisture. Only retract the accessory when the coatings are dry, without pressing it to a wet mattress or mud pad. This keeps the sleeping area clean and the next night's sleep you adjust the bed quickly instead of fixing a misplaced headrest.

When preparing the overnight for a longer outing, review Sleeping bags and pillows according to the season, personal habits and the place by the water. Then consider your choice with Carp fishing beds, and for the rest of the gear and the entire camp layout, look carefully Accessories for carp and bottom fishing.
