Full details
This XL Accessory bag from Matrix is designed for anglers who need ample, organized storage for their tackle, especially larger items like pole rollers and roosts.

FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the XL Accessory Bag?
The dimensions are Length 100cm x Width 25cm x Height 28cm.
Is this bag suitable for general tackle storage, or specifically large items?
This bag is specifically designed for large accessories like pole rollers and roosts. While smaller items can be placed inside, it may not be the most efficient use of space unless organized within secondary containers.
How effective is the lid at keeping water out?
The lid is moulded to overlap the outer edge and combined with heat-sealed seams, it offers excellent protection against rain and splashes, significantly reducing the chance of water entering the main compartment.
Can the shoulder strap be adjusted or removed?
Yes, the shoulder strap is removable, and typically adjustable to provide a comfortable fit for the user.
What type of material is the bag made from?
The bag is constructed from 100% durable EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate).
How should I clean the bag?
Simply wipe the bag clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning agents.
Will the bag fit on a standard seatbox?
The bag's dimensions (100cm long) suggest it is designed to be transported alongside, rather than directly on top of, most standard seatboxes. It is intended for carrying larger accessories that might not fit within or on a seatbox.
Troubleshooting
Bag lid does not close fully.
Ensure no items are obstructing the lid. If the EVA is stiff from cold, allow it to warm up slightly before attempting to close.
Water seeping into the bag.
Check that the lid overlap is correctly positioned and that the heat-sealed seams are intact. Clean any debris from the lid's edge.
Handles feel weak or damaged.
Cease using the handles if they appear damaged. Utilize the removable shoulder strap as an alternative. Inspect for tears or stitching issues.
Moulded feet have worn down significantly.
While designed for durability, extreme wear may occur on abrasive surfaces. Consider using a protective mat under the bag when placing it on rough terrain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This bag requires no assembly. It is ready to use straight out of the packaging. Simply open the lid and begin organizing your accessories inside.
Compatibility: Designed to be compatible with large fishing accessories such as pole rollers, roosts, bait tubs, and other seatbox accessories. Its dimensions (L100 x W25 x H28cm) should be considered against the size of your existing equipment and storage space.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the bag clean with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Drying: If the bag becomes wet, allow it to air dry completely before storing to prevent mold or mildew.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use, as this can degrade the EVA material over time.
- Seams: Periodically check the heat-sealed seams for any signs of damage. Minor damage can sometimes be repaired with specialized EVA repair kits.
