Gear Bag - What do you use?

[midger]

The type of bag you choose isn't all that important as long as it meets your needs. Costs go from mild to wild and there are some good deals to be had on close outs, etc. Make sure the bag is going to be suitable for your purpose. For example, I enjoy drift fishing so any bag that isn't completely waterproof wouldn't do in the boat as they will get wet and anything inside a non waterproof bag will also get wet. My favorite bag for the boat is a green Montana drift boat bag that I don't think is made any longer, but it has served me well for over 15 years and it still doesn't leak.

For general carrying of "stuff" a duffle bag works well especially if it has side pockets as well as end pockets. I have an old bucks bag that meets this requirement and also use a closeout eddie baeur duffle. I also use a couple of reel bags to protect the reels inside the duffles. Several different companies make these.

I use gear bags specifically for flyfishing gear and it suits me fine. I'm on my second set of Sage luggage-I just wait for them to go on closeout. But everytime I'm walking out of Trader Joes, I pass by the shopping bag section and there's a bag with a zipper and padding that would make a great wader and boot bag. I think its at least leakproof, meant to carry frozen groceries.

$0.59 can't go wrong

mine is sorta like that but a tad bigger and zips up. My grandma had a bunch at the house. So I took some. I gave a few away. I'll have to ask her again where she got em. I can't recall. Anyhow, it is a cheap solution to hold waders and boots.

Great minds think alike, I use the Ikea bag for waders and boots. Works great. I have a no name gear bag, that I will carry extra spools, tippets, extra fly boxes and extra junk. Most of the time I do not need to drag the small bag around. I have a food land reusable grocery bag I like I picked up in Kauai a few years ago the works to drag a bit of gear around in.
