Seal Line remains at the top of our list for dry bags, which we use for almost all of our different hunting and fishing trips. This dry bag also works as a backpack, with a dual-strip roll-down closure for complete dryness, making it more effective, and handier, than ever. The removable, padded shoulder straps are a nice touch.Ĭoming with Filson’s legendary quality and good looks, an added dimension to this carry-on was its durability. Made from waterproof material and equipped with water-resistant zippers and seams, this bag was essential for packing into the bush in 2012. One of our favorite tackle boxes, we find the angled storage system allows quick, convenient access, while the hard case protects our tackle against the elements.

The bag still looks new here at home - it's the most durable luggage we've ever used. When we flew to Glasgow (then back to Ireland, and then home to the US), the same thing happened - safe belongings, envy of other passengers, great size and fit ( amazing how old hat such compliments get). It fit well into the rental car, and rolled easily into our home. We loved that the hard bottom by the wheels deflected any breakage of things inside - all our belongings arrived in one piece. Yes, we fielded great comments from our fellow passengers about the bag - they had never seen such an interesting and useful bag. We were astonished in the Shannon airport to see that after several flights, the fishpond bag still looked new. We had decided to take three pieces of luggage, and in the end took just two, because the fishpond bag held so much - and was under the 50 pound weight limit. Best of all, it fit our tripod and ALL of our belongings that weren't being carried on. It has very strong handles, wheels at one end, and even a shoulder strap. It is a beautiful pine green, with natural accents. When fishpond sent us the Bumpy Road Cargo Duffel, we were elated. We wanted a bag that was easy to handle, could fit a lot, and was able to accommodate our tripod (26" long when retracted). So - let me share with our our experience of the fishpond Bumpy Road Cargo Duffel on our recent trip to Ireland and Scotland. They are all beautifully designed and extremely durable and functional.
