Daiwa N'ZON Accessory Bags
42-litre and 75-litre versions
Two roomy sizes, padded construction and handy pocket layouts make these a sensible shout for organised sessions. Just don’t mistake the water-resistant base for a waterproof bag.
- Available in 42-litre and 75-litre versions.
- Fully padded construction with a zip-round lid.
- Two clear-view zipped pockets beneath the lid and two external box pockets.
- Water-resistant, high-gauge rubberised base.
Make sure it’s the right one. This covers both sizes of the N’ZON Accessory Bag. We haven’t tested either on the bank; the verdict is based on their confirmed features and practical layout.

Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Feeder anglers carrying several accessory boxes. The roomy main storage and separate pockets offer a practical way to organise feeders, hooklength cases and smaller essentials, subject to checking fit.
- Coarse anglers transporting kit by trolley or from nearby parking. The larger capacities make more sense when you aren’t carrying a packed bag a long way on one shoulder.
Maybe skip if
- Roving anglers travelling light. Even the smaller version is a sizeable bag for a few floats, hooks and a bait tub.
- Anglers wanting fully waterproof storage. The confirmed water resistance applies to the base, not a sealed waterproof enclosure.

Introducing the Daiwa N'ZON Accessory Bags
Two roomy sizes, padded construction and handy pocket layouts make these a sensible shout for organised sessions. Just don’t mistake the water-resistant base for a waterproof bag.

Quick verdict
A tidy base for your tackle
The N’ZON Accessory Bags have the right ingredients for carrying a proper feeder or coarse-fishing setup: padding, useful pockets and several ways to lift them. The 42-litre version looks the more manageable starting point; the 75-litre is for anglers with genuinely bulky loads.
The catch is size. Neither is a tiny grab-and-go bag, and extra space can tempt you into hauling unnecessary kit. Choose around the boxes you actually carry, rather than buying the biggest and finding things to fill it.

Full padding and a high-gauge rubberised base suggest a sensible build, though long-term durability hasn’t been tested.
The storage layout and multiple lifting options look well suited to carrying a substantial accessory load.
Better organisation can simplify tackle changes, but a bag has no direct effect on getting bites.
Clear-view pockets, a zip-round lid and oversized toggles offer practical access without unnecessary complication.
The feature set looks useful, but this is a cautious provisional score without a confirmed selling price.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Daiwa N'ZON Accessory Bags
Accessory bags aren’t the glamorous bit of fishing, are they? Nobody spends the drive home chatting about a cracking zip toggle. But when you’re setting up a feeder rod, hunting for a hooklength case and trying to keep loose packets out of the mud, a sensible bag earns its place. The Daiwa N’ZON Accessory Bags take that straightforward job seriously, at least on paper. You get padded storage, a proper spread of pockets and two capacities rather than one awkward compromise. It’s practical kit for carrying practical kit.
The choice is between 42 litres and 75 litres, and those are quite different propositions. The smaller version measures 680 × 260 × 300 mm; the larger is 860 × 350 × 310 mm. Get a tape measure out before clicking buy, mate. Even the 42-litre isn’t a little shoulder pouch for a loaf of bread and a disgorger. The 75-litre is a substantial bit of luggage, so think about your boot opening, trolley platform and the space beside your seatbox, not just the capacity on the label.
For feeder fishing, the appeal is easy to see. You might want separate boxes for cage feeders and Method feeders, a hooklength case, spare line, tools and all the other bits that somehow become essential. A roomy accessory bag gives that lot a home without spreading it across several loose carriers. That doesn’t mean every box will fit, though. The stated measurements shouldn’t be treated as guaranteed usable internal space. Check your biggest cases first, especially if you’re hoping to carry something long or particularly rigid.
The pocket layout is where this gets more interesting than a plain holdall. Beneath the zip-round lid are two clear-view zippered pockets, giving smaller bits a visible place rather than leaving them buried beneath the main load. There are also two external box pockets with zip-top access. You could organise around how you fish: frequently needed accessories outside, less-used spares deeper inside. Just check pocket fit before earmarking a particular box. The useful thing is separation, not an excuse to pack every spare you own.
Fully padded construction is another welcome feature when you’re putting tackle into the car alongside a seatbox, rod bag and trolley. Padding provides a buffer, though it doesn’t turn a soft bag into a crushproof case. Delicate bits still belong in suitable containers. Down underneath, there’s a water-resistant, high-gauge rubberised base. That’s a sensible detail for the damp ground you encounter on plenty of UK sessions. It isn’t a promise that the whole bag will shrug off prolonged rain, standing water or being left open during a shower.
Daiwa hasn’t left you with just one way of shifting it, either. There’s a detachable, adjustable, padded shoulder strap, plus carry handles joined by a Velcro closure grip. A grab-loop strap at each end gives you extra places to take hold when loading or repositioning it. Those options look dead handy for moving a bulky bag around a boot or onto a trolley. Still, a padded strap can only do so much. Fill a big bag with dense feeders and other heavy accessories and you’ll know about it on the walk.
The oversized zip toggles are a small but sensible touch. Cold fingers and fiddly fastenings aren’t a brilliant combination when you’d rather be getting clipped up. The zip-round lid should also make the main compartment easier to get into than a narrow opening would. Our practical advice is to pack the heavy stuff low and central, then give the bits you reach for often their own spots. That way, changing feeder size or finding scissors needn’t become a full rummage with half your kit spread around your feet.
We haven’t had either version on the bank, so long-term zip life, loaded carrying comfort and wet-weather performance remain untested here. What we can say is that the layout makes sense for anglers carrying a proper spread of coarse or feeder accessories. The 42-litre is the sensible first size to consider; step up only if your normal load calls for it. Neither bag will turn a blank into a bag-up, but organised tackle can remove a fair bit of faff. Sometimes that’s exactly what you want from luggage.

Our take
Buy for your boxes, not your ambitions
Capacity is only half the story. Check your longest accessory case and your car boot against the stated dimensions before choosing a size.
Keep dense items such as feeders low and central, with regularly used bits in the accessible pockets. That makes more sense than letting everything disappear into one big tackle jumble.
Layout and carrying
Closer look: useful organisation without the gimmicks
You’re buying a padded accessory bag with a zip-round lid, rather than a rigid tackle chest. The two clear-view pockets under the lid make sense for smaller items you want to identify quickly. The two external box pockets offer another layer of separation, although their individual dimensions aren’t confirmed here.
The carrying setup is nicely thought through on paper. Use the joined handles for short lifts, the adjustable shoulder strap when appropriate, and the end grab loops when manoeuvring the bag. None of those features removes the need to keep the load sensible, especially if your feeder collection is getting a bit ridiculous.
Worth knowing. The rubberised base is water-resistant, not proof that the whole bag is waterproof. Keep spare clothing, paperwork and moisture-sensitive tackle separately protected, and avoid parking the bag in standing water.
Choose your capacity
Who it suits: organised anglers with a proper load
Feeder and general coarse anglers carrying several accessory cases are the obvious fit. The smaller version deserves first consideration if you want one main bag without automatically going enormous. Lay out your normal session kit first, then work out what actually needs to travel.
The 75-litre option makes more sense for bulkier loads and trolley-based setups. More room can be handy, but it also takes up more of your swim and car. If you’re hopping between river swims or sneaking round the margins with minimal kit, a compact bag is likely to be less faff.
Before you buy
FAQs in full: size, rain and carrying
Which size should you choose? The 42-litre measures 680 × 260 × 300 mm, while the 75-litre measures 860 × 350 × 310 mm. Use those figures to check transport space, but don’t assume they describe the clear internal compartment. If fitting a particular case is crucial, confirm usable space before buying.
Is it waterproof? The confirmed feature is a water-resistant, high-gauge rubberised base. There’s no basis here for treating the complete bag as waterproof. Keep the lid closed in showers and use separate waterproof protection for anything that really must stay dry.
How can you carry it? Both the shoulder strap and handles give you conventional options, with grab loops at the ends for repositioning. The shoulder strap is padded, adjustable and detachable. Actual comfort will depend on your load and walking distance; we haven’t checked it with a packed bag.

Start with the 42-litre unless your regular load genuinely needs more space. Compare the stated dimensions with your boxes, boot and trolley before buying; external measurements don’t guarantee internal fit.
02Are the N’ZON Accessory Bags waterproof?
