Waist bag PROBAG LARGE BLACK EDITION hotfly

PROBAG LARGE

The PROBAG LARGE BLACK EDITION by Hotfly is very roomy and has a wide range of accessories that allow you to carry not only a lot of equipment but also food and drink so that you can spend the whole day on the river with everything you need. Thanks to these features it is particularly suitable for both fly fishing and spinning. The material it is made of is water-repellent, which allows you to use it in the rain without any problems.

MAIN POCKET:

The main pocket is very spacious, its approximate measurements are 27cm wide X 20cm high X 10cm deep, with a capacity of 5.5 litres. Inside you can easily place several large fly boxes, spinning bait boxes, sandwiches or photographic equipment.

The main pocket is opened by two zips which can be moved simultaneously by means of a lanyard linking them together. In this way, the pocket has a very wide opening, making it much easier to manage its contents.

Inside there are 3 flat compartments, ideal for storing small items such as: documents, fishing licences, fishing leaders, etc...

There is also a small plastic snap hook to hold your car keys, which is very useful for finding them without having to search for them among the equipment scattered inside the bag. This also prevents you from accidentally losing them during your fishing session.

Also inside you'll find a padded, water-repellent zipped case in which to store your smartphone. The front of this case is made of transparent plastic and equipped with touch technology, which allows you to use your phone without having to take it out. This case is equipped with a Velcro fastener that allows you to fix it inside the pocket.

FRONT POCKET:

The front pocket has a hard outer shell that protects the contents inside very well. Here too there are 3 flat internal compartments, identical to those in the main pocket. An interesting feature of this pocket is that the outer shell can be opened forwards by 90° using a zip. This allows you to use it as a "tray" to temporarily rest accessories or bait while tying the leader or changing the fly. Its concave shape prevents you from accidentally dropping your equipment.

BACK POCKET:

At the back is a small flat pocket with Velcro closure. It can easily hold medium-sized fly boxes or any accessories that are not too bulky.

WATER BOTTLE HOLDER:

At the bottom of Hotfly's PROBAG LARGE BLACK EDITION fishing pouch is a mesh water bottle holder with elastic closure. It can easily hold classic 0.75l water bottles. The fact that it is positioned in the lower part of the bag brings with it two interesting advantages, namely that it does not take away space from the essential fishing equipment and that it is positioned horizontally along the entire length of the bag so that it is not unbalanced to the right or left.

ACCESSORY HOLDERS:

Above the front pocket there is a very large Velcro on which you can attach some of the accessory holders included in the price, which are themselves equipped with Velcro attachments. Specifically they are:

• 1 bottle holder
• 1 tippet dispenser
• 1 Fly patch
• 1 Fly box

This Velcro system allows you to adjust the position of the accessory holders as you wish, placing them in the most convenient position for you and leaving those you do not need at home.

In addition to these accessory holders you will also find:

• 1 Tool-Tab
• 2 D-Rings
• 4 Fabric straps
• 1 Large pliers holder

ADJUSTMENTS AND COMFORT:

Spacious but also very comfortable, Hotfly's PROBAG LARGE BLACK EDITION is accessorized with many adjustable straps that allow it to fit any body type. The interesting thing about these straps is that they are equipped with a practical Velcro tab that allows them to be rolled up and fastened, thus preventing them from dangling uncomfortably from all sides.

In the event that the pouch is too heavy due to overloading, there is a comfortable shoulder strap that can be passed around the neck to support some of this weight. The shoulder strap in question is removable and not always necessary because even when full of equipment, the pouch remains very stable on the hips.

The inside has comfortable padding so you can wear it all day, even when fully loaded, without any discomfort.

ZIPPERS

The zips are very important in this type of product because they have to slide well, even after prolonged use. This is why they are manufactured by YKK, a company specialising in this field and guaranteeing maximum reliability. Once closed, these zips are covered with a rubber sheath that makes them water-repellent, protecting the contents from possible water infiltration.

All zips are equipped with a practical hard rubber ring for ease of use. It is very convenient especially when you have to open or close a pocket and only have one hand free.
