JRDS Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Comes with an external hide pole pocket which is way too small, the rest of it is OK but this thing is way too small and frustrating. Can't have been designed by anyone that actually shoots!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazb1967 Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 I have the jack pyke maxi decoy bag and it's fine, I get my 3 nets decoys and other bits and they fit in no bother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Neal Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 You didn't buy the "mini" decoy bag did you? It's for midgets with 2ft hide poles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going off my experience with PayPal and some suppliers I would end up paying return postage costs with no refund, shower off **** that they are.

ghosthunter Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Send it back as "unfit for purpose" then! How does that make it "not fit for purpose"? Its a bag, you put things in it and carry it around. If you can put things in it and carry it then it is totally fit for purpose. Advert has no mention of what size poles will fit perfectly. Manufacturer could argue that the poles being used are not what it was designed for. My poles for example come with their own carry bag but that said they are heavy duty with double prong bottoms.

Calm down old bean, it would appear to have been sold as a bag for carrying decoy equipment including hide poles so that is why I think it is unfit for purpose!

sitsinhedges Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 The inside is big but the external pocket for the hide pole ends is a joke. Just put the hide poles in the bag itself. The little pocket with Velcro strap above is garbage but the bag itself is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what I am doing but why bother with a dedicated pole carrier when it is way too small for any type of hide poles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
army646 Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 I bought a Camoustreme carp fishing rucksack/Bergen a few years ago. God knows what capacity it is, but it eats 30 shell decoys, 2 or 3 fairly large MOD nets and loads of other bits and pieces in the many pockets provided. It has lasted brilliantly, but Sod's law I have just looked and it appears that they have stopped making it. I don't think that I paid much more than £30 for it off Ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
