Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Predator anglers waiting over static or float-fished baits. The recline, armrests and padded seat make long spells watching the water far more comfortable.
- Coarse anglers wanting a proper adjustable chair. It gives you a stable, level perch for canals, lakes and uneven pegs without going to a huge bedchair-style seat.
Maybe skip if
- Ultra-mobile anglers covering lots of swims. At 5.4kg, it’s manageable, but a compact stool will be quicker and lighter for constant roaming.
- Anglers with very limited transport space. The armrests and fuller chair design need more room than a simple folding seat.

Quick verdict
A cracking all-round bank chair
The Fox EOS 2 Chair gets the important stuff right: proper adjustable legs, swivelling mud feet, a reclining backrest and comfortable armrests. It’s a sensible middle-ground option for predator anglers and coarse fishers who want comfort without lugging a massive seat around.
At 5.4kg, it’s not a featherweight stool, but that extra bulk buys you a much more supportive place to sit through long waits between bites. If you want a chair for the margins, a pike session or a quiet brew while the rods are out, this is a bob-on choice.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Fox EOS 2 Chair
Some fishing chairs are little more than a bit of fabric stretched over a frame. Fine for a quick brew and a short session, but not ideal when you’re sat behind predator rods for hours. The Fox EOS 2 Chair takes a more comfortable route. It’s a proper padded chair with a reclining backrest, armrests and the sort of leg adjustment that makes uneven banks far less of a pain.
This is the middle-sized model in Fox’s EOS chair range, so it sits neatly between the smaller and larger options. That makes it a useful all-rounder rather than a niche monster of a seat. You get a decent 49cm width and 41cm seat depth, giving you enough room to settle in without the chair feeling wildly oversized on a narrow peg or tucked beside a canal margin.
For predator anglers, comfort matters more than some folk admit. You can spend ages watching a float sit perfectly still, waiting for a roach to twitch or a pike to turn and move off with the bait. A hard stool gets old pretty quickly. The EOS 2’s padded seat and supportive backrest give you a much better perch for those long, quiet stretches between a pluck and a screaming take.
The reclining backrest is a particularly useful touch. You can sit more upright while sorting traces, checking a bait or keeping a close eye on the rods, then lean back when everything’s set and the water’s gone quiet. The comfortable armrests help it feel more like a proper outdoor chair too, which is handy when you’re on a full day session rather than just dropping in for an hour.
Bank conditions are rarely flat and friendly. One peg is rutted, the next is soft, and another seems to have been designed entirely from awkward slopes. All four legs on the EOS 2 are fully adjustable, so you can get the chair sitting level instead of balancing at a daft angle. That’s better for comfort, and it means your mug is less likely to go for a swim when you reach across for something.
The swivelling mud feet add another bit of sensible bank thinking. They can sit more naturally on soft ground rather than digging in awkwardly, helping the chair stay planted. They won’t turn a boggy swim into a patio, of course, but they’re a proper upgrade over tiny rigid feet when the margin is damp or the peg has had plenty of boots on it.
At 5.4kg, the EOS 2 isn’t a featherweight roving seat. That’s the trade-off for the padding, armrests, reclining back and four adjustable legs. Still, it folds easily and comes with a padded cover, so it’s straightforward to transport and protect between sessions. For a predator angler carrying a sensible amount of kit rather than hiking miles, the weight feels fair enough.
The khaki and dark khaki finish keeps it looking at home beside the rods, unhooking mat and tackle bag. The outer fabric is 100% polyester, with polyurethane padding/filling, giving you a practical seat for regular bank use. Just treat it like any padded chair: keep it reasonably clean, let it dry after a wet session and don’t leave it living in a soaking boot.
Overall, the Fox EOS 2 Chair is about making the waiting part of fishing more comfortable. It won’t help a bait find a pike or make a float disappear, but it can help you stay settled, alert and ready when the moment finally comes. For predator work, general coarse fishing and relaxed day sessions, it’s a cracking middle-ground chair without loads of faff.

Our take
Why it matters for predator fishing
Predator fishing often means sitting still for long spells, watching floats, alarms or baited rods for that one proper take. A chair that stays level on uneven banks and lets you alter the backrest can make those chilly, slow-paced hours a lot easier.
The EOS 2 is especially handy when you’re moving between swims but still want more comfort than a basic folding stool. Its mud feet help spread the load on softer ground, while the padded cover gives you a more pleasant perch when the weather turns and the bite-time feels a long way off.
The useful bits
A supportive chair without going daft
The EOS 2 is built around comfort and adjustability. The padded seat, 64cm back height and comfortable armrests give you proper support, while the reclining backrest lets you change your position through the session. That’s useful when you’re switching from actively watching a float to settling back with the rods set.
Its four fully adjustable legs are one of the biggest practical wins. You can level the chair on sloping pegs, and the swivelling mud feet are well suited to softer banks. The 40-50cm adjustable height range gives you room to find a comfortable sitting position without needing to wedge a bag under one leg.
Worth knowing. The EOS 2 weighs 5.4kg. That’s perfectly reasonable for a padded, reclining chair with four adjustable legs, but it won’t compete with a tiny stool when you’re leapfrogging swims or carrying kit a long way.
On the bank
Ideal for waiting games and relaxed sessions
This chair makes most sense for predator anglers fishing static or semi-static tactics. If you’re watching a float, waiting over a deadbait or keeping an eye on rods, the extra comfort helps you stay settled without constantly shifting about. The recline is handy once everything is baited, clipped up and fishing properly.
It also suits coarse anglers who want more than a basic seat but don’t need a massive match-style setup. The middle-sized shape should work well on day-ticket lakes, canals and general club waters, particularly when you’re carrying a sensible amount of kit and aren’t planning to roam every swim.
Worth knowing. If you’re a very mobile angler, think about the whole loadout. The chair folds easily, but a 5.4kg seat is still something you’ll notice alongside nets, bait, unhooking kit and a rucksack.
Quick answers
The bits anglers usually want to know
The EOS 2 is the middle-sized chair in the Fox EOS range. It measures 49cm wide, with a 41cm seat depth and a 64cm back height. Its height adjusts from 40cm to 50cm, giving you useful flexibility on different pegs and with different sitting preferences.
The chair uses a 100% polyester outer fabric and polyurethane padding/filling. It comes with a padded cover, folds easily and is finished in khaki and dark khaki. The cover is handy for keeping the chair together and protecting it when it’s being carried or stored.
For wet or soft banks, use the individual leg adjustments to get the frame level before sitting down, and check that the mud feet are sitting squarely. On a predator session, keep the chair positioned so you can stand quickly and reach the rods or unhooking mat without tripping over your own kit.
