My fishing buddy has (had) a waterproof Simms bag, I had bag envy. The zipper on his bag quit zipping. I bought a roll top waterproof bag, the problem is the roll top - it works, keeps the weather out but it also rolls my stuff around inside the bag; tried to sell it on the forum, no love.For stillwaters, I've gone to a plastic bin rather then a bag so I can see everything inside.
No handle of course, but it works for me. Takes up about the same space as a bag, cheap and keeps things drier then my Simms boat bag ever did.

The one I have has a leather patch on it with a Woodcock embossed on it and the word, Timber-doodle. I got it at a Rough Grouse Society banquet back in the early 1980's. Used it as a shooting bag for weekly skeet until my buddy died in 1992 and then repurposed it into my tackle bag. Orvis sold them under their brand too. They have leather bottom and carrying handles of rolled saddle leather too. Actually a pretty classy bag but being a top loader with no baffles it was a dig every time I needed something.Years ago I bought a waxed canvas (I think) Filson bag that was on sale. Don't have a pic handy but I still use it. It was like 60 bucks or something. I just googled and it seems like everything they have now is way fancier and way more expensive.
