hand made canvas rucksack.

I looked through the photographs and the write up and by far it was the best choice I had seen so paid my money and awaited it being delivered.
I was not to be disappointed and had everything in a rucksack that some more expensive fishing bags did not.
Its made from cotton canvas which is relatively waterproof in its own right, but just to be on the safe side its also fitted with a waterproof liner and a waterproof cover which when not being used slips into its own zipped pocket at the bottom of the bag.
The fasteners and zip fittings are all cowhide and the zips are heavy duty. There is 3 external small pockets for bits & pieces and inside there is a zipped pocket to keep securely your tickets, phone etc, as well as the main compartment which has a few ways of getting into it.
You can either go in through the top like a conventional rucksack or if like me you only carry a small amount of tackle then it can be stored in the bottom part which is accessible through a zip on the back of the rucksack.
