The BFD is one "Bad Ass" piece of equipment. We’re talking the kind of bag Brando would've chosen if he fly fished or the kind of bag Peter Fonda would've towed behind his bike in Easy Rider. Yeah, that’s right, a "Hell on wheels" kind of bag. As a matter of fact we will put this bag in the ring any day with those other "Sissy, French speaking" travel bags. It’s 11,000 cubic inches of testosterone, all wrapped in enough webbing and zippers to make even veteran airline baggage handlers blush.

Our Wader Bag is anything but an oversized gym bag. One thing we hated most about current wader bags was the terrible access they provided. You really needed three hands, two to hold the bag open and the third to pull your gear out! Our Wader Bag now offers what we like to call 3-D access. The panels open up so wide you can actually load your gear at just about any angle. Which is particularly nice when you are working from the tailgate of your truck!
 Fully waterproof base
 Waterproof zippers throughout
 Changing tarp
 3-D Access entry system
 Rod case carrying straps
 

We double-stitch every seam. We use the finest, toughest zippers and components. There's nothing skimpy in this bag. Its comfortable, heavy-duty shoulder strap, bottom and backpack straps are covered with a full 1/2-inch of padding.
Both the 10- and 15-Day Bags have hidden backpack straps tucked neatly into the bag's bottom. Pop them out and snap them together to walk from Airport Gate A1 to Z30; to your lodge cabin or to meet the float plane.
Pockets, pockets, pockets . . . outside and inside to stow toiletries, underwear, socks, thermals, shirts, trousers ­ whatever!
Open either an Abel 10- or 15-Day Lodge Trip Bag and what's inside? A secondary bag! To accommodate coming home with more than you started with, we've included another duffel bag that can be used for laundry if nothing else. The extra duffel is a terrific way to carry rain gear, a sweater, snacks, mask, fin and snorkel aboard the plane or boat. The "piggyback" extra bag virtually doubles your carrying capacity. The second duffel is of a lighter weight Nylon® and rolls into one of the two inside pouches.
The back panel is constructed of a smooth Nylon® that will not snag, rub or scuff your jacket and slacks when carrying the bag next to your body. And one of the giant side pockets is ventilated with mesh, so it's no problem to bring damp things home.
