I like your thinking, but how are you going to get it to work over rocks and sand? :?

No bother for concrete. I will srtuggle on sand. Keep your eyes out locally for a free buggy. Especially one with large wide wheels. You can buy some threaded bar from a hardware store Try M10 (10mm) with some nuts. Drill the legs of the trolly. Fit the threaded bar through the front legs and then back legs. Fit the wheels and the the nuts to hold them in place. Then you might have something that is up to the sand.

Here's a far better idea (and I*m really not trying to be a smart-arse here...) Only take along the gear that you are actually going to need for that particular session. Travelling as light as possible makes the whole fishing experience a lot more stress-free and enjoyable in my opinion

just carry it, you will become stonger over time and therefore in theory the box becomes lighter, or are you just too lazy?
