Some back story...
I like the little Plano 3449 double-sided utility boxes because they fit nicely in my kayak dashboards.
I've been looking for a good bag into which I could fit a few of these, and yesterday, at the local Army-Navy, I found a 11"x7"x6" mechanics tool bag that perfectly fits five of the Plano boxes. The cotton canvas bag looks just like this one.
I like that it's nice and compact and that the Plano boxes fit perfectly across the bottom with room for some plastic baits and a few other items. I'm going to add a shoulder strap for carry.
That said, I'd like the canvas to be more water resistant or waterproof. I already gave it a healthy dose (two coats) of Camp Dry, but I wonder if there are other (better) ways that people have treated military duffels/bags to keep out the rain.
