For those of you who fish for smaller "eats" like weaks and fluke and may eschew bait like me, I can not wait to try out my new bag.
I have worn out two similar bags from Cabelas, but this one seems to be best suited to my needs and wants. I just attach one end of the shoulder strap to a DIY loop of line tied through the bottom of my Scotty, which allows me to stretch forward and bring the bag back to my lap. Inside the top flap is a clear zipped compartment perfect for my dressed leadhead jig rigs. In the main compartment sits one of those plano-type plastic utility boxes and on top of it a plano liquid bait container for Gulp. One side pocket is my "first aid" stuff, skin-so-soft, some bandaids, some aspirin (for my anticipated stroke as if I might actually save self,lol), a chapstick, some spf lotion, etc. Front and rear zipped pockets easily can hold a chart, marine registry card, leader line, pliers, etc. Best of all its trim color matches my yak ! I won't test it out until fluke season, whenever that is, as I just fish local and the only stripers in my back bay area in April are throw backs and I like just wearing trunks and a wife beater or two under my PFD.
I do wish that the makers of these bags would use more velcro instead of zippers, the way the surf plug bags are made.
I am going to try using beeswax on this bag's many zippers. I always used white lithium grease in the past.
