Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Mobile deadbait anglers. The large main compartment and rucksack straps make it suited to moving between swims with bait and tackle aboard.
- Predator anglers who like organised luggage. The supplied medium tackle box, rig-bin-friendly pocket and mat attachment points keep the important bits close at hand.
Maybe skip if
- Ultra-light lure anglers. If you’re carrying only a small box and a handful of lures, this rucksack could feel bigger than necessary.
- Anglers who want lots of individually sealed compartments. The main section is open, so you’ll need separate bags or boxes to divide bait, clothing and tackle.

Quick verdict
Verdict
If you’re a mobile predator angler carrying deadbaits, rigs and terminal tackle from swim to swim, this rucksack looks bang on for the job. The big open main compartment takes Predator Deadbait Bags, while the pockets keep the smaller bits from turning into one massive tackle jumble.
It’s not a tiny daypack, and that’s the point. You get useful capacity, padded adjustable straps, a proper carry handle and front D-rings for a Foldable Mat. For pike and other predator sessions where you’re constantly on the move, it’s a practical bit of kit with very little faff.

The polyester, polyethylene and PVC construction is backed up by padded straps, an EVA handle and useful fishing-specific features.
The layout should carry deadbait bags, boxes and terminal tackle sensibly during mobile sessions.
It won’t catch fish itself, but quick access to rigs, bait and an unhooking mat helps you fish efficiently and handle a pike properly.
The rucksack straps, carry handle, supplied box and dedicated pocket layout keep the faff low.
Its predator-specific storage and included medium tackle box add useful value for deadbait anglers, though lighter lure anglers may not use all the capacity.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Fox Rage Predator Rucksack
If you’re the sort of predator angler who can’t sit still for five minutes, the Fox Rage Predator Rucksack is aimed right at you, mate. It’s built for moving swims with deadbaits, terminal tackle and the other gubbins that quickly stacks up on a pike session.
This isn’t a dainty little lure bag. At 48 × 32 × 47 cm, it’s a proper bit of luggage with room to swallow a decent load. That makes sense when you’re roving a reservoir, working a canal or walking a big gravel pit looking for a bite-time spot.
The main compartment is large and open, with enough space for Fox Rage Predator Deadbait Bags. That’s the key feature here. Rather than trying to squash bait into a cramped little section, you’ve got a roomy area built around the way deadbait anglers actually pack.
There’s also a full-length side pocket and two smaller side pockets. One of those smaller pockets fits a rig bin, which is dead handy for traces, crimps, swivels and spare bits of terminal tackle. No more digging through the whole bag because one little tool has gone walkabout.
Up front, the rucksack comes with a medium tackle box. That gives you a ready-made home for hooks, leads, floats or other predator essentials, depending on how you set your rigs up. The front pocket is also compatible with a Fox Edges Medium Box, so you’ve got some flexibility if you already use that format.
The front D-rings are another proper bank-friendly touch. They let you attach a Foldable Mat to the outside, keeping your unhooking gear available without nicking valuable space from the main compartment. When a pike slides over the net, you want the mat out quickly, not buried under bait bags and spare layers.
Carrying it should be straightforward too. The adjustable padded rucksack straps spread the load across your shoulders, which is a lot nicer than lugging everything by one thin handle during a long walk. There’s an EVA carry handle as well, useful when you’re loading up at the car or shifting between a couple of nearby swims.
The materials are a polyester, polyethylene and PVC mix, with polyester making up the largest share. That’s a practical combination for fishing luggage: tough enough for regular bank work and easy to wipe down when bait juice, lake water or a bit of muddy ground gets involved.
The main thing to remember is that the open compartment gives you capacity rather than loads of built-in dividers. Pack it with a bit of sense — bait bags in the main section, the box up front, rigs in the rig bin and the mat on the D-rings — and it should keep a mobile session nicely under control.
For a predator angler who likes to cover water, this is a cracking, focused rucksack. It won’t suit everyone, especially if you only carry a tiny lure box, but deadbait fans get a lot of useful space and a layout that’s been thought around the way they fish.

Our take
A rucksack built around moving swims
The Fox Rage Predator Rucksack FLU007 is aimed squarely at the mobile deadbait angler. It gives you one larger open compartment for bait bags, plus dedicated pockets for terminal tackle and a medium tackle box. That makes it much easier to keep your bait, traces, tools and odds and ends organised while you’re searching a water.
The front D-rings are a particularly handy touch. Clip on a Foldable Mat and your unhooking gear stays accessible rather than buried under a load of spare traces. Add the padded rucksack straps and EVA carry handle, and you’ve got a flexible carry system for a proper roving predator session.
What you’re buying
A roomy pack for the predator essentials
The FLU007 combines a large open main compartment with a useful spread of side and front storage. Predator Deadbait Bags fit in the main area, while the supplied medium tackle box gives the smaller tackle a defined home.
The full-length side pocket is useful for longer or flatter items, and two smaller side pockets help break up the clutter. One smaller pocket fits a rig bin, which is ideal for keeping traces, hooks and terminal bits together.
On the front, D-rings let you attach a Foldable Mat. That’s a sensible setup for pike work, where the unhooking mat needs to be accessible as soon as the fish is safely in the net.
Worth knowing. The main compartment is open rather than heavily sectioned. Use bait bags, tackle boxes and the rig bin to create your own layout, rather than expecting lots of fixed dividers.
Best on the bank
Made for covering water
This is best suited to mobile deadbait anglers who walk between swims and need more than a tiny shoulder bag can offer. The padded adjustable straps make it easier to carry a proper session’s gear, while the EVA handle gives you a quick grab-and-go option.
It also makes sense for anglers who like keeping bait, rigs and unhooking kit together. The mat attachment points are especially useful when you’re fishing new water and want everything ready for a sudden take.
If your usual session is a minimal lure wander with one small box, this could be a bit of overkill. But for deadbaits, spare traces, tools and a mat, the extra capacity is far more bob on.
Quick answers
The bits anglers usually ask
The rucksack measures 48 × 32 × 47 cm and uses a 75% polyester, 20% polyethylene and 5% PVC material mix. It’s designed as predator luggage, rather than a general-purpose everyday backpack.
The front pocket arrives with a medium tackle box and can also take a Fox Edges Medium Box. That gives you a decent starting point for organising rigs and terminal tackle without buying another storage box straight away.
A Foldable Mat attaches to the front D-rings, leaving the large compartment free for Predator Deadbait Bags and other session gear. It’s a tidy way to keep fish-care kit close without letting it take over the inside.
On paper
Pros & cons
What we like
- Large main compartment suits deadbait bags and the bulkier bits of a predator session.
- Useful pocket layout, including a rig-bin-sized smaller pocket.

- Adjustable padded rucksack straps and an EVA carry handle give you two easy carrying options.
Worth knowing
- The generous shape may feel a bit much for very short, ultra-light lure sessions.
- An open main compartment relies on your own bags and boxes to keep bait and tackle properly separated.
- The supplied medium tackle box is useful, but the rucksack’s capacity can encourage you to pack more than you need.
