Avid Carp Screen House XT Compact Bivvy – Compact Fast-Erect Social Shelter with Blackout Roof & Full Mosquito Mesh
The Avid Carp Screen House XT Compact Bivvy is the ideal solution for anglers who want a spacious yet more streamlined social shelter for longer sessions with friends and family. Designed as a compact version of the full-size XT, it still provides generous internal room, increased headroom, and excellent versatility — making it perfect as a large 1-person bivvy, a comfortable 2-person setup, or a dedicated social hub on the bank.
Built around four fast-erect, quick-up frame poles, the XT Compact offers rapid setup and takedown, making it ideal for regular session anglers and those who want a reliable basecamp without the hassle. The improved zip-off tunnel porch provides full coverage from the elements and gives you the option to tailor the shelter depending on your fishing style and the weather.
Made from durable 10,000mm hydrostatic head khaki fabric, the shelter offers dependable waterproof protection. The blackout roof material helps reduce internal light and heat, keeping the shelter cooler during sunny conditions. Full-size mosquito mesh panels — finished in Avid’s signature distortion camo — allow excellent airflow while stopping insects, making it perfect for summer trips and warm climates.
Complete with a 3-way rear window (solid, PVC, and mosquito mesh), reinforced guy ropes, heavy-duty corner blocks with carabiner attachments, and a side-door configuration that allows bivvies to sit alongside it, the XT Compact is built for practical, long-lasting performance. Supplied with a groundsheet, heavy-duty carry bag, pegs, and guy ropes, it's ready for any session straight out of the bag.
