I carry a 'Mart mesh bag in my yak to have at the takeout, too...

I saw this bag at a local dive shop for $50...Scubapro Mesh Rucksack...looks like it would work pretty good too.

looks like a pretty good gear bag.

I like the zippered small pocket.

I had a bag similiar to this design except the pocket was closed with a velcro tab which soon wore out making the pocket useless. So, the zipper pocket should work well for small stuff.

Buy it and get on the water!

I got my bag in and it's HUGE and seems to be well made. If it's not going to mess anything up, it would be nice to have everything in one place to keep from forgetting anything. Is there anything I need to leave hanging up...wet suit, drytop, etc...or can I store everything in the bag?

Hang it all to dry (pull rope out of throw-bag), then pack it all back into the mesh... ready to roll without gathering & forgetting!!

Sweet! Thanks!!! :)

as you are stringing up the throw rope to dry, give it a visual inspection. as you do the repack (I like the Max Wellhouse two finger packing procedure) feel the rope for pinched or broken internal strands and you get double duty out of the entire process.

Instead of just pulling the throw rope out of the bag to hang the drying line, I suggest you pick a target and practice your rope throws -- one day the practice will come in mighty handy.
