I was wet wading with a friend on Craine’s Beach in Massachusetts. We started fishing before sunrise. As the sun started to rise, a fish rose up and smacked a Stillwater Lures Smack-it popper. The fish was pulling line like the drag was not set. We were waist deep, so we waded back to the beach. We had no idea what fish was on, but we knew it was big. After some tough give and take, my friend landed the fish: a 15 pound bluefish whose girth had gator-like proportions! My friend pulled out his mobile phone to take a picture and to his unpleasant surprise the phone was swimming in sea water. The “water proof” bag he bought to protect his electronic devices failed! Unacceptable.
The following day I was in Maine motoring through the Kittery Trading Postwhen I noticed the same “water proof” bag that failed my friend and a bag by AquaPac. I purchased the AquaPac. But, before I could recommend it to my friend, I tested it. I placed a dry $100.00 USD bill inside the AquaPac and held it below water via 16 ounces of lead:
After 36 minutes, I removed the AquaPac and recovered my money. The AquaPac kept my $100.00 USD bill 100% dry! I now use the AquaPac during my fishing trips and when I go to the beach. I may forget my bait or sunscreen, but I cannot afford to forget my AquaPac. ;-).
