A lot of tent models come with pre-attached poles (ostensibly for easy assembly) that still have to be inserted through the sleeves. If you’re not careful, though, you may rip a hole in your tent and let unwanted guests such as bugs and bad weather in.

Camping Stores in Perth Essential Equipment for Camping with Kids


"Meticulous planning is a vital part of every outdoor expedition. From deciding which destination to visit to creating a checklist of everything you’re going to pack, you have to be thorough in your preparations. By doing so, you can avoid getting blindsided by certain issues, such as a rainy weather forecast that would prevent you from fishing, things you’re not allowed to bring to the campsite, and forgetting to bring important items. If you’re planning to go on a camping trip with your kids, you don’t have to worry that it’s going to feel like a Man vs. Wild episode and that you’ll need to unleash your inner Bear Grylls just to survive in the wilderness. Pack all the equipment your family needs, and you can look forward to an outdoor experience that is both comfy and enjoyable."

The Night “Fishing Rod” Took on a New Meaning


"The term “fishing rod” took on a whole new meaning recently in Perth, when legendary rocker Rod Stewart took some time out of his busy concert schedule for a few hours of fishing down at Swan River. According to a man who called 6PR’s breakfast programme on 25 March to tell the story, he, along with his daughter and her boyfriend, set off to cast a line around 10 p.m. the previous evening near Matilda Bay. Around midnight, he heard his daughter screaming in glee. “Do you know a man called Rod Stewart?!” the daughter exclaimed."
