Anyone know if you can strap a rolled up unhooking matt to one of these Korda rucksacks?

I've got that and it's great . Was just looking to trim my gear up a bit and use something a bit more compact . But the speero does everything I need so will probably stick with that

I have the TA compact one and it's really good. BUT it is very small.

Even short barbel trips require an additional container for a couple of bait tubs.

Thanks for the info 👍 As things are and doing a bit of digging about on all those suggested . I think I'm probably better of staying with speero compact for the time being

I looked at the Korda one in a shop recently and thought the quality of all their luggage was very cheap. The zips looked weak and the material was very thin.

I have a TA one and it's great but a little small and not that comfortable either so it usually ends up on the barrow for big pushes. I had the Cotswolds Aquarius one but sold it after one 2 or 3 trips as I didn't like the configuration on the pockets and again not comfortable.

Interested to see what the ESP one is like.

Cotswold Aquarius rucksacks are the most uncomfortable rucksacks out there everyone I've spoke to says the same they won't listen to feedback and change the design and there prices are ridiculous the camo esp is most comfortable rucksack I've ever owned and I've had a few in nearly 40 years of carping
