A bag comprising:
- a top;
- a bottom;
- a plurality of sides, wherein the sides are coupled to the bottom and at least one of the sides is coupled to the top thereby forming an interior of the bag;
- a flap formed of at least a portion of the top and configured to engage and disengage an opening on the top, wherein the flap can move between an open and closed position;
- a pocket coupled to at least one of the sides wherein the pocket has a first opening on a top end of the pocket and is configured to hold an elongated object;
- and
- a pocket strap configured to secure the elongated object in the pocket.
A method for using a bag, comprising:
- determining a width of a transport device;
- coupling a first bridge strap of a first bag to a second bridge strap of a second bag, wherein a length of the coupled bridge straps is at least slightly larger than the width of the transport device;
- securing the coupled bridge straps to the transport device;
- placing an elongated object in a side pocket of at least one of the bags and wherein the elongated object is at least twice as long as the height of the bag;
- securing the elongated object to the bag;
- traveling to a location on the transport device;
- and
- using the elongated object for an activity at the location.
A bag comprising:
- a bottom;
- a top;
- four sides wherein each side is coupled to the bottom and at least one of the sides is coupled to the top;
- an insulated container located within the four sides and the bottom, wherein the insulated container is configured to substantially maintain the temperature of one or more objects within the bag;
- and
- an interior pocket located between one of the side walls and a panel of the insulated container, and wherein when the interior pocket is in the closed position the interior pocket keeps items within the interior pocket substantially dry.
A bag, comprising:
- four sides;
- a top;
- a bottom;
- an insulated container in the interior of the bag configured to substantially maintain the temperature of items placed in the bag;
- two straps configured to couple to the bag near the top of the bag;
- and
- two or more connectors located on at least one of the sides, wherein the two or more connectors are configured to couple the two straps to the side of the bag and allow a user to carry the bag like a backpack.
A method for carrying a fishing rod on a transport device, comprising:
- coupling a first bridge strap of a first bag to a second bridge strap of a second bag;
- inserting a fishing rod into a side pocket of one of the bags;
- securing the fishing rod in the pocket;
- securing the first and the second bag to the transport device;
- and
- driving the transport device to a fishing location.
A method for securing two bags to a plurality of objects, comprising:
- determining a first width of a first object;
- coupling a bridge strap of a first bag to a second bag wherein a distance between the first bag and the second bag corresponds to the first width of the first object;
- securing a strap to the first object;
- uncoupling the bridge strap from the second bag;
- unsecuring the strap from the object;
- determining a second width of a second object, wherein the second width is larger than the first width;
- coupling the bridge strap of the first bag to the second bag wherein the distance between the first bag and the second bag corresponds to the second width of the second object;
- and
- securing the strap to the second object.
A bag, comprising:
- a top;
- a bottom;
- four sides, wherein the sides are coupled to the bottom and at least one of the sides is coupled to the top thereby forming an interior of the bag;
- a flap formed of at least a portion of the top and configured to engage and disengage an opening on the top, wherein the flap can move between an open and a closed position
- an insulated container in the interior of the bag configured to substantially maintain the temperature of items placed in the bag, wherein the insulated container further comprises:
- an insulating panel located in the interior of each of the sides, wherein the insulating panel comprises an insulator and a radiant barrier;
- a pocket coupled to at least one of the sides wherein the pocket has a first opening on a top end of the pocket and a second smaller opening on the bottom end of the pocket and wherein the pocket is configured to hold an elongated object;
