Australian Bag Outfitters Bushman Angler Bag

the bag had a terrible musty odor. I returned it.

Even though is advertised as a "angler's bag" likely most people will use for other purposes. Is my "Man purse". Holds my computer, papers, keys, pens, etc. Great bag at a great price.

Bought it for my son who is attending university to use as a book bag...

I just got this bag and have not used it. This bag is very well constructed, but I'm not so sure how good it is going to be for fishing. The main thing I would like to see is a waterproof or rubberized lining. My fishing stuff is frequently wet, and on occasion I might even want to stick a fish in it. The inside is padded knit. It looks like when it gets dirty, wet, and stinky from bait and fish, it will be the devil to clean. Same thing goes for the suede accents. I am not sure why they padded a bag for fishing. I may just end up using it a a book bag. The price was great, but I don't think I would recommend it for fishing. I would recommend it for work or school.

Nice product Attractive.

I purchased the Angler(s) Bag specifically for toting my large 17 inch Laptop when traveling. The outside of the bag has two large (deep) pockets that are ideal for accessory storage. The inside compartment has a divider, that is not very sturdy,(the stitching ripped when holding the weight of my (heavy) Laptop.) I would recommend getting a laptop sleeve in addition to the protection of just the bag itself; or adding some foam around the sides. Since I carry this on-board the aircraft with me, proper storage (W/O) damage can be a problem sometimes when over head bins become full. I would think a lighter, smaller laptop would work well with this bag. Of coarse you could always use it for what it was designed for. I always carry too much fishing tackle for this to work for me as a Anglers Bag..
