Stephen-H Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 My hide pole bag has been split & tawn for a good while now many bodges with electrical tape etc have failed so while browsing in a local charity shop today I found this bag hung up in the corner just marked up mens bag.I thought it would fit the bill for the job having the height on its size & the base being reinforced multiple large pockets so I picked it up for the grand sum of ...£3 put some of my pigeon deocoying kit in it this afternoon can comfortably hold 100 cartridges possibly 150 at a push. Fits five hide poles in side & ten half shell with room to spare debating adding the large net inside there is also pockets for the shell sticks , multiple water bottles for out in the field & small top compartment for the clips I sometimes use to hold the net in place & a pen knife all this & it's a backpack so easier to carry the weight around. The space I've saved has allowed me to put my ff6 flapper & battery into the drum swivel seat so also easier to carry. If anyone is after a similar bag google hockey bags/ hockey stick bags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsh man Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 The next time my 27th repair fall to bits , I will have to seriously think about investing a good part of my grand daughters inheritance on a pole bag , I have been keeping my eyes open around our big local car boot that have a few fishing stalls , I often see the odd rod bag but some look heavy , or they are asking to much , but the search will continue and I might well look into something very similar to your investment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aled Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 Nice one! I love a rummage in a charity shop, over the years i've found an immaculate game bag which needed a new front strap found a suitable belt for the repair in the belt basket, a lap top bag, a mitchell 206 spinning reel, Hugh Falkus fishing books, wellington boot bag, and some old style cork fishing floats.

Stimo22 Posted July 13, 2022 Report Share Posted July 13, 2022 We have several charity shops in town and over the years have picked up some good bargains. Picked up a tilly waterproof hat for £3 and use it for all my beating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
