Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Carp anglers fishing from a car. It keeps a damp, slimy net contained instead of letting it make a mess in the boot.
- Anglers storing tackle at home or in a garage. A wet net can be put away in one dedicated place while helping keep odours under control.
Maybe skip if
- Anglers after a bag for several pieces of tackle. This is a focused landing-net bag, not a wider storage sack for handles, mats and accessories.
- Anyone expecting the bag to replace net drying. It contains the wet net, but proper drying is still needed between sessions.

The 210D PVC-backed fabric is a sensible choice for damp, mucky landing-net storage.
It directly addresses wet-net moisture, slime and odours during transport and storage.
It won’t catch you more fish, but it helps keep essential netting kit organised and ready to go.
Roll the net up, put it inside and get on with packing away — nice and simple.
For anglers who regularly carry wet nets in a car, the practical mess-saving benefits should justify the spend.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Thinking Anglers Wet Fishing Net Bag
There are some bits of tackle you only properly appreciate after a long day on the bank. A decent wet-net bag is one of them. The Thinking Anglers Wet Fishing Net Bag is a simple bit of kit, but it solves a proper nuisance: what to do with a wet, slimy landing net when the rods are packed away.
We’ve all been there, mate. You’ve had a tidy bite-time, the net’s done its job and now it’s dripping all over the place. Chuck it in the boot and the next drive starts smelling like a forgotten bait bucket. Put it on the back seat and your clothing gets the full fishy treatment. Not ideal, especially when you’ve got a fair trek home.
This bag gives that wet net its own little home. The landing net rolls up inside, then the bag helps contain the moisture, slime and whiffy odours. That means less mess on the car interior and less chance of damp net gunk ending up on your fleece, holdall or passenger seat. Small win, but a very handy one.
At 125cm long and 18cm wide, it’s a long, narrow design made around the shape of a rolled-up net. That’s the important bit here. It isn’t trying to be a massive carryall or a universal tackle sack. It’s focused storage for one awkward, wet item that’s otherwise a pain to transport.
The material is 210D PVC-backed fabric. In plain English, that gives the bag a waterproof-backed outer designed for damp, mucky jobs. A landing net is hardly a clean bit of kit after a carp has rolled around in it, so having a wipe-friendly, wet-resistant layer makes plenty of sense on the bank.
The best time to use it is straight after the last fish has gone back. Give the net a quick rinse if you can, roll it up sensibly and pop it inside before loading the barrow or car. You’re not faffing about trying to wrap it in an old carrier bag, and you’re not leaving a wet net swinging around the boot.
There’s a useful distinction, though. This bag contains a wet net; it doesn’t magically dry one. Once you’re home, get the net out and let it dry properly. That’ll help keep the net fresh and ready for the next session, rather than letting dampness sit inside any bag for days on end.
It also makes sense for storage beyond the car. If your fishing kit lives in a garage, shed or spare room, keeping the net in a dedicated bag helps stop damp tackle spreading its smell around. It’s a tidy solution for anglers who like their gear organised and don’t fancy the house smelling like the margins.
There aren’t extra pockets, separate accessories or complicated features to get your head around. That’s part of the appeal. If your main problem is a wet landing net making a mess, the Thinking Anglers bag tackles that problem directly. Proper simple, and sometimes that’s exactly what you want.

Our take
The bit of kit you don’t appreciate until the car stinks
Wet nets are part and parcel of carp fishing, but chucking one straight into the boot is asking for trouble. This bag gives you a tidy, contained place to put it after the last fish is safely returned.
The 125cm length is aimed at rolled-up landing nets, while the PVC-backed fabric is there to keep damp and fishy muck inside the bag rather than all over your clothing or interior trim.
A tidy bit of wet-net storage
What you’re buying
The Thinking Anglers Wet Fishing Net Bag is a long, narrow storage bag for a wet landing net. The net rolls up inside, with the 125cm by 18cm dimensions giving you a clear idea of the shape it’s built around.
Its 210D PVC-backed fabric is suited to damp tackle and helps keep slime and moisture contained. That makes it useful when packing down after a session, especially if the car is already loaded with luggage and you don’t want a soggy net causing chaos.
Worth knowing. This is a dedicated net bag, not a full tackle-storage system. It doesn’t replace rinsing and drying your net, but it does make the messy journey home a lot tidier.
A mate for car anglers
Where it earns its keep
It suits carp anglers who regularly fish from a car and need to pack away a wet net quickly. It’s also useful for anglers whose tackle is stored in the house, garage or shed, where containing wet-net odours is a welcome bonus.
Use it after the final fish: rinse the net where possible, roll it down, place it inside and get packed up. At home, take the net back out and hang it somewhere airy so it can dry properly before the next bite-time.
It’s less suited to anyone wanting one bag for a whole landing-net setup or several pieces of tackle. This product is deliberately focused, which is exactly why it stays neat and easy to use.
The quick answers
What you need to know

It’s made from 210D PVC-backed fabric and is intended to help contain moisture, slime and odours. That makes it handy in the boot, at home or in a garage.
