Jamie builds a great bag. Innovative with the Buddy-Lok system. The quality of his bags and his customer service is top notch (he is very accessible). My fishing outings are usually 5-7 hours away from the vehicle. I bring a drink all the time now. The Flatlander bags and accessories make it easy to cover all the conditions I fish. On rocks, back bay, miles of sand beach, I can leave the vehicle loaded for the outing and comfortable. Over the years I have figured out what works for me. I have two belts set up the same way, except one has a two tube, the other a three tube. I have the tall bags and the normal bags (three and two tube).. My bags are always attached to my belt, most of the weight is on the belt, almost none on my shoulder.
