KastKing Dry Bags,100% Waterproof Storage Bags,Military Grade Construction for Swimming,Kayaking,Boating,Hiking,Camping,Fishing, Biking,Skiing

I ordered this bag to use for transporting saltwater fishing gear after having already ordered one of KastKing's 20L bags for my freshwater kit. I liked that previous bag enough to order this version with the window - the handy little cell phone dry bag it came with was just a nice bonus.Easily has enough room for multiple tackle boxes, spools of line, big spray and sunblock, all of my bait and soft plastics and the tools of the trade. Keeps everything dry and the window helps to find where in the bag the thing you're looking for is. Both of my bags have held up well and easily sling over the shoulder for flats wading or just hiking down the beach looking for a spot. They've also proven 100% resistant to water intrusion and are a great size for packing everything you'll need but still traveling light.Also great for filling with stuff you want to keep dry on boating trips and as a general purpose carryall sack if that's what you want out of it. At this price, it's worth picking up a couple in various sizes just to always have a tough waterproof storage/carry solution on hand.The phone case is also quite nice, using a similar rolltop sealing method, but with snaps to keep it closed. The lanyard is just long enough to wear around the neck to keep it close at hand, but still let you use your device, as the plastic doesn't interfere significantly with touchscreen functionality. Also, it floats!

I bought this bag (30L size) for an upcoming August camping trip to accommodate a family of five for several days of lake play - I gave it a test run on a beach trip and it worked exceptionally well. I did not use it at all around the water but it did serve the purpose of keeping all of the bag contents dry and free from sand even after hours of opening and closing (easily able to stuff into the sack five towels, several bottles of suntan lotion and bug spray, numerous snacks, and several generic mumbo jumbo items that kids under the age of 10 throw in for good measure). The carrying strap worked out quite well (not sure how it will hold up after years of use and abuse, but it seems fairly sturdy).Big benefit: A really useful and cool thing about the bag that most other bags do not offer/feature - the ability to see what is inside without rifling through the contents! The transparent/see-through strip of material helps you get a visual of what is where inside the bag (guards against kids pulling out all of the contents of the bag just to see if there is a bag of Doritos at the bottom).Overall, an excellent product.

Due to COVID lockdowns of public spaces, our family has been spending more and more time on the river. This has increased the need for well-made, water proof storage. This bag is great! Love the look, the color, the clear window. Admittedly, I have not used it for very long yet, so I will need to post an update after I get a full year in, but so far I cannot complain. Bag is made well (you can always tell when you finally hold it as opposed to just seeing pictures). It does exactly what we need AND it was at a good price!I would have paid this amount for just the dry bag, but the free phone case is a great bonus! I wish the phone case was slightly bigger in that my iPhone plus in its Otterbox case doesn't easily fit, but my wife's phone does (slim case). I can't hold that against the company as probably 90% of phones would fit, including mine, if I removed the Otterbox case.Thanks for making a good product that allows my family to get outside and wet! The river is calling........

I don't write a lot of reviews but felt compelled to write one. We have kayaks and were looking for an extra dry bag that was reasonably priced. Let me preface this by saying that we bought a dry bag from Walmart first. There wasn't a selection, they literally had one, so that's what we got. If I wouldn't have gotten first, I wouldn't have had anything to compare it to.When I initially opened the package I looked over the dry bag (I got a 20L yellow one to match my yellow and black kayak) the material seemed kind of thin and cheesey, almost rubbery-plastic like compared to the one from Walmart, which kind of surprised me. Side by side, the one from Walmart ("Outdoor" brand) seems to be made out of a material that is much heavier and appears very waterproof. The stitching on the bottom of the Amazon bag was also questionable and messy. I do like the see through window, it was nice to be able to locate something quickly while out on the water. The plastic hooks on the ends of the straps are flimsy and look like they will break easily. I was excited about the phone holder until I actually used it. It made great sense when I ordered it, but I was most disappointed with it. I take an old phone with me when I kayak so I don't risk losing my good one in the water. I have an old Samsung Note 9 that I use for pictures when we're kayaking. It's a larger phone. It slid into the phone holder snugly with no excess room. The inside of the phone case had three ziploc type sliding seals which you then fold over three times, then it snaps using snaps. It was fine putting it in but awful to take out. Obviously if you're out on the water it's most likely warm outside. The heat basically melts the plastic to your phone and creates a vacuum which made it very difficult to remove the phone from the little pouch. It was a lot of steps to take the phone out and put it back in, especially if you're in a kayak floating in the water. I guess it's ok if you just want to take your phone, and not actually use it when you're on the water.Overall, I gave this 4 stars. The quality wasn't there like I had hoped, but it did the job and I will continue to use it. It did hold air when the bag was closed and the buckles were latched to make the handle. None of my stuff got wet and there's no doubt that the bag will float if it falls out of the kayak. It does what it needs to do, but I feel like the bag from Walmart will hold up a lot longer (it doesn't have a carry strap though :/ ) I'll probably get a better strap for the bag. If you're looking for something basic and inexpensive, this will do just fine. I would consider purchasing another one down the road if this one holds up.
