Cons:

None

A fantstic design that allows access to all of the contents I've just bought the Korum Ruckbag, and have sold my Korum Rucksack to pay for it.The first thing I noticed is that it looks quite a bit smaller than the rucksack, and I immediately thought I'd made a big mistake and that I should've kept the Rucksack.

Pros:

Robust with lots of good storage pockets both inside and out with great access to all your gear without having to dig deep into a normal rucksack.Seems to be Good quality and time will tell, but I have Korum stuff for ages and no problems so far.
|
|
Cons:
|
Wish the straps were detachable so they do not get muddy.
|
|
Well thought out and good value! Looks to be a good product and I think will really make my life a little easier.

At last a fishing rucksack. Was getting ready for a new rucksack and chair as my last ones were suffering after 5 years abuse. So far this as fullfilled the role with no complaints and paired with the light wieght chair is very comfortable to carry. Though i would have put better sh

Takes so much tackle would have to buy more to fill it.

Great piece of kit. Combined with the lightweight chair, it is so easy to carry the bulk of your tackle on your back. Which is great for the roving angler.

Huge capacity from what appears at first sight to be a small rucksack. I got all of my tackle in plus some spare kit (carp tackle, float tackle and even a few pole bits and pieces) and had so much room left that I emptied the contents of the bait bucket i

Cons:

The straps are too small. When the bag is fully loaded and you clip it onto the korum light weight chair you can only just get your arms through the straps even on their maximum setting. I cannot carry this when wearing a thick coat. I will have to work o

Best ever rucksack? This is a brilliant product. I have gone through lots of bags and rucksacks looking for the perfect solution up until now my favorite was the fox ruckbag but this is far more usefull. All of the tackle is instantly accessible, the chair fastening is excel

The most sensibly designed rucksack Well made with high quality zips. This looks like a rucksack that will not come apart at the seams like my others have done. And a very clever design,

Pros:

Deceptively spacious inside.Very comfortable too carry even when fully loaded with a days worth of bait and gear.unique opening so you are fishing ""out of the bag"". lots of internal pockets and very spacious external pockets the long pockets holds short
|
|
Cons:
|
none so far.though as stated in another review some more external straps for coats and maybe bank sticks would be useful.The chair hooks keep getting caught in the zip of the main opening but this is a minor problem.
|

This product has revolutionised my river fishing. my old holdall died in the winter and my rcuksack was too deep meaning you had to pull everything out to start fishing. Now I have the ruckbag I find myself far more inclined to move around meaning I am probably covering double the number of swims that I

Pros:

Clever design, the top/side zips open and flips right back to reveal all contents and can be rested on boxes to give a working platform. The flap has two large zipped mesh pockets which are ideal for keeping flattish packets of bits that remain visable. T
|
|
Cons:
|
When used with chair, the straps aren't overly generous. So if your larger than average, check it out with the chair and your big winter coat.
|
|
Designed with fishing in mind So much better than rummaging around in a traditional style rucksack. Its more like an extension to your tackle box! It works really well with the chair, but your tackle box must seal good or you will find those small items mixed together. The Korum type

Pros:

well made and good size pockets fits all my gear just right.like the little pockets in side and how you can get to all tackel.
|
|
Cons:
|
Im not the biggest by far but in winter when you got all your winter clothes on i think you might struggle to get it on you back
|
|
At last a rucksack i might keep more then 12 months well pleased used it on the middle severn where i tend to move swims often when i not catching.Did feel like it was a pain to move swims cause it was easy to move.Thought it kill me to move swims with the weight of it BUT seem light on my back.

Cons:

Being quite a big bloke it is a bit of a struggle to get on when the chair is clipped on given the shortish nature of the straps,however once on its very comfortable as the mesh on the chair seems to mould to your back and even fully loaded its well balan
|

Very well thought out design. Another 5-6 inches on the straps would have helped tremendously without breaking the bank however like other Korum products I have its well made, durable and the clipping on of the chair is a great idea,its also great value in my opinion given the qualit

A wonderfully designed and beautifully functional piece of kit.

However, problems do come when using it with the Korum lightweight chair attached. I have found that in this configuration (chair between your back and the ruckbag) the straps barely extend to be long enough to get my arms through when wearing cold-weathe

Probably the best that's out there but.... Great rucksack, but Korum need to improve the chair mounting

Pros:
|
being able to clip on my chair means i can now use both hands to ride my bike!
|
|
Cons:
|
can be difficult to slip on when wearing complete winter clothing..perhaps longer straps? When picking up ruckbag by just one strap(to put it on),gingerly waiting for the strap to rip out.To be fair only had it 5 months,but not let me down...yet
|
|
'I've got a tardis on my back !' excellent concept.Has certainly made carrying tackle to the bank far more comfortable
