Total Carp Magazine Review

A good mate of mine, Tim Norris, spent ages trying to find the right bag for his carp fishing, scouring the luggage world, and trying pretty much everything out there in the process, before settling on one of these.

I asked him how he’d decided that it fit the bill and he told me that it was just the right size – just big enough for his gear without being so big that it encouraged him to take stuff that he didn’t need (we’ve all been there, right?). It was also easy to access the stuff that he needed quickly via the external pockets and the single, full-size opening and internal compartments allowed him to arrange everything neatly inside.

As he was telling me all of this, I realised that the NXG sounded like it ticked all of the boxes in my search for an all-round bag that I could take anywhere. So, soon after, I was the new owner of said rucksack. Today, several months on, I have to say that Tim was right in his assessment and I continue to use mine, as does he.
One thing that I had to do was literally take a Stanley to the straps and harness. Despite it being a decent enough harness in itself, I use a barrow, so will never need to carry the bag on my back. More importantly, when you lay the rucksack on the ground, the bulky harness seriously imposes on the internal storage space – defeating the object of me having one in the first place.

So, as a rucksack I would say it is okay, but as a barrow bag it is absolutely spot-on, and I can see me using it for quite some time.
