Looks like I have some more research to do. Might just wait until the Ice Expo and see what I think of all of them when I can compare them all side by side.
As for the people who had mentioned the rods getting snagged in the fabric of the tubes, do you think using rod slicks would help solve the issue? I have rod slicks on all of my rods already and plan on still using them just because it keeps them from getting tangled up in my case that I have now.
Thanks for all the input already voiced!!
On my transporter bag i took off the felt and went around the edges of the tube with black electrical tape and that solved all the snagging problem. When im done on the ice i always snip off the jigs anyways to avoid any other problems. Last season one of the smaller side pockets now has a hole in it as mentioned by the op. The bag will hold a ton of gear, i even got my lx5 to fit in there.
