Bag recommendation please
Hi,
I'm looking to get a bag for general use. I have an old ruck sack that I have been using, but it's useless as everything is in together and it's impossible to see what I'm doing or what's in it and what's not.
I'm looking for a bag which I can see stuff pretty easily when I open it (particularly when on a beach in the dark with a head lamp!). I also want something which will serve as a catch-all. i.e. something which will carry most of my ancillary gear (weights, rigs, head lamp, knifes gloves etc.)
Don't mind spending a few quid on it either.
Any recommendations?
Thanks.

Re: Bag recommendation please
Id advise a seat box with the breakaway back rest if your feelling flush, all your gear will be easily accesable and youll have a seat into the bargin.

Re: Bag recommendation please
Thanks lads.
Have decided to go with this:
I'll fit in better in the summer months, no? I felt that Tesco has just a bit too much class.
