I’ve had the original Nomad for over 5 years. For those of you that are considering this bag understand that their is a structural flaw with all these bags. The main compartment should be framed out with plexi glass or something on the inside to provide internal rigidity because as you walk the contents can shift on you. Also and this is really important, while the bag can be converted into one large storage compartment the velcro padded partition will wear out very quickly if you use it as two compartments. The weight of say soft plastics will push down and stress the stitching and tear at the seams if you don’t have the bottom portion filled with 3600 boxes to provide a base for the weight in the top. Also on the inside of the bag their is a strap that to keep the 3600 boxes contained. The hook velcro at the top will tear into the slowly ripping seams and speed up the process of the seams tearing apart. If you get this trust me frame it out or any bag like this with a padded removable inner compartment because as you use these and walk around the contents will shift placing stress in certain areas. I also use the sunglasses holder for three 3000 reserve spools to trade out different lines. Other than what I’ve warned you about the bag is great, but minus one zipper. This likely isn’t the best bag for pond hopping. Depending on the fishing your doing this can get very heavy.

This is fantastic information. I appreciate you sharing this.

I drove about 35 miles yesterday to my 2nd "local" lake. It's clear with 6 to 10 ten of visibility in the summer. Yesterday visibility was 2-3 feet and we were catching them in 30 feet of water. Water temp was 55 but that lake is DEEP for this area.

I enjoy this bag, owned it for going on four years without the charger. Very comfortable, fits tight to the body, and I beaten the heck out of it with no issues! Just joined your channel after watching a few of your great videos.

Thanks for the comment. It seems like many who own this bag really love it. With so many satisfied users, $200 may really be a great deal.

I have this bag for over 6 years and I love it. The only thing that broke on it was both zipper on the bottom main opening. Also the chest clip broke. I closed my door on it. I also bought the smaller version. Too small. Now getting another one. It’s the most comfortable and durable bag I ever own. Worth every penny. Great review keep up the good work.

More to come! Backpack videos every other day for the next couple of weeks.

Good review. I have the camo bag with just the light, no charging station. I can get a 3500 in either side pocket and then you can put 2 more in the top compartment above the two 3600. I also added teo molle saddle bags on the webbing straps up top to expand it. I like to go light on bags, but I have this for overnights or taking my kid fishing so that I can carry lunch, clothes, etc.

Man I love this bag. I want one. Gotta save a little more cash. Again appreciate your detailed reviews. Such a huge help

I do own it and love it, but bought mine a while ago and didn’t offer the charging pack but mine does have the light. I also hook my water bottle to the outside of bag.

I love mine. However my mother bought it for me and she has since passed away so I only use it on certain trips. With that being said I need another bag. I've watched several of your videos and they've given me great insight. If you had to pick the best overall bag with the most storage what would it be?

Best overall bag I think is probably the bags from ECO Fishing

You should do a review for the flambeau heritage 5007

Most of these companies are going to only included a couple of boxes. Probably a cost cutting measure.

It definitely looks large enough. Thanks for the suggestion.

Looks nice. Don't really need to electronics... I go fishing to get away from that stuff... but either way I can't afford $200 for a bag, that's as much as my tackle is worth...

Nice review. That is a pretty expensive bag for fishing and it doesn't hold that much tackle

It's pretty comparable with most bags and holds about the same amount of tackle. There are a few that hold more though for sure.

ive had one for years. it holds a ton of tackle. mr bass is kind of slow. it just takes awhile to set it up the way you want it.

It's the best bag on the market. My first one got stolen. The second one is on order, and it holds more than enough when your walking / hiking with it its insulated. Put your drinks on the inside, which keeps them cool. You need to test gear in the field to truly do a review, or your opinion doesn't mean s#!%. Step your game up.

The boxes that come with the bag are utter shite. I’d pass because of that.

Most expensive and they cant even give you all the plastic boxes to fill the bag.

My daughter has been hounding me for a pink one I told were better off ordering it online
