Thank you for viewing. This is a popular model that is very user-friendly, ranking quite high for fishing bags designed for run-and-gun fishing. I've only used it 5-6 times for run-and-gun eging, so it's in very clean condition with no odors or stains. The lining of the bag is a rubber-like mesh material that acts as a non-slip surface, providing a secure hold and making it easy to move around. The rod holder and MOLLE system made it very convenient to use. The outer material is a durable nylon, similar to Cordura, so it's completely different from the current model's successor, which has a PVC coating that tends to peel off. This model is highly recommended. The pouch is not included. Thank you.
