This travel bag is perfect for fly fishing travel. The drop bottom holds wet waders and wading boots to fly home without getting all your other clothing and gear wet and dirty. The bag is perfect size to carry all your fishing gear including wading jackets and flies. In addition, the wheels make it easy to travel with to destinations that require luggage transfers such as getting the gear from the airport to the float plane dock. Highly recommend this travel bag when you need a bag that will carry all your clothing and gear. 5 stars!!!
I was looking for a bag that had good support and a drop bottom. With my previous duffel style bag, everything would fall to the bottom making it hard to lug around. This bag has the convenience of a duffel with side support, bottom compartment, and wheels. Overall easy to use, easily fits a weeks worth of clothing including my hiking shoes. Very pleased with the purchase, wish I had found it sooner. Looks great too.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great bag, ineffective Velcro leads to failure

As others have noted, the Velcro that connects the main straps is not effective. I always attach it when checking my bag but the bag always arrives off the carousel with the straps separated. They are then vulnerable to catching on something. The worst issue is that baggage handlers pick it up by one strap which must account for my receiving the bag yesterday off a United flight with the straps apart and a large hole in the bag where a baggage handler had picked it up by one strap, Now I need a new bag. Sierra - can you replace it?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
