Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Carp and specimen anglers carrying plenty of tackle. The big capacity and spread of pockets give you room for terminal tackle, bankware and session extras without relying on loads of separate bags.
- Anglers who tie rigs or sort tackle at the swim. The foldout EVA workstation gives you a proper, cleaner area for rig work and keeps small items easier to control.
Maybe skip if
- Minimalist day-ticket anglers. It’s a substantial 3 kg rucksack with plenty of room, so it may be overkill if you only carry a small tackle box and a few bits.
- Anglers fishing cramped swims or travelling ultra-light. The generous dimensions and full load potential can be a bit much where space and weight are both at a premium.
The lowdown
Introducing the Trakker NXC Camo Deluxe Rucksack
A cracking 55-litre fishing rucksack with a built-in workstation, sensible storage and the sort of carrying support you’ll appreciate once the swim’s a fair hike from the car.
- Approximately 55-litre capacity in a 58 × 48 × 20 cm footprint.
- Foldout lay-flat workstation with removable EVA tray.
- Waterproof base, accessory straps and padded carry system.
- Multiple external and internal pockets for tackle, bankware and session essentials.
Quick verdict
A proper carry-all for organised sessions
The Trakker NXC Camo Deluxe Rucksack looks like a smart option for anglers who want one main luggage piece rather than a heap of separate pouches and bags. Its foldout workstation, removable EVA tray and mixture of internal and external storage make it genuinely versatile on the bank.
It’s a sizeable, fairly substantial rucksack rather than a featherweight day bag. But if you’re carrying terminal tackle, alarms, bits for rigs and a few session essentials, the layout should keep the faff down and everything close at hand.

The n-dura Performance fabric, waterproof base and substantial padded carry system suggest a durable bit of bank luggage.
The pocket layout, removable EVA tray and multiple carrying options are well matched to organised fishing sessions.
It won’t catch fish for you, but quicker rig work and less tackle faff can help you stay ready when the rods are off.
The workstation and separated storage are straightforward, although the size means careful packing is needed.
It offers more than a basic rucksack, with a built-in table and broad storage, but the extra weight and bulk won’t suit every angler.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Trakker NXC Camo Deluxe Rucksack
There’s always that moment before a session when you’re trying to decide what actually needs to come on the bank. Tackle box, rig bits, bankware, spares, bait tools, maybe a brew kit for good measure. Before long, you’ve got three bags, a carrier and one suspiciously overloaded shoulder. The Trakker NXC Camo Deluxe Rucksack is built to tidy that whole palaver up.
This is a serious bit of fishing luggage rather than a little roving day pack. With an approximate 55-litre capacity and dimensions of 58 × 48 × 20 cm, it gives you plenty of room for a proper session’s tackle. It weighs around 3 kg empty, mind, so it’s not pretending to be featherweight. You’re buying organisation and support here, not ultralight minimalism.
The clever bit is the foldout lay-flat workstation. Open it up and you’ve got a stable EVA surface for tying rigs, sorting hooks or keeping small components from vanishing into the margins. Anyone who’s tried to thread a rig on a damp unhooking mat or balanced a tackle box on uneven ground will know why that’s a proper useful touch.
The EVA table isn’t fixed to one job either. It can be removed, secured in multiple positions and used separately. That gives you a bit more freedom around the swim. Keep the rucksack behind the bivvy, bring the table beside the rods, and you’ve got a dedicated little tackle station without spreading kit everywhere.
Storage looks nicely geared towards real carp and coarse fishing rather than just being one giant empty sack. There’s a full-length external bankware pocket with a padded divider, which should suit longer or more delicate items. Three large-capacity external pockets give you somewhere for the bits you reach for regularly, instead of forcing you to dig through the main compartment every time.
Inside, three zipped mesh pockets under the lid and another zipped pocket in the main compartment help keep smaller tackle under control. That’s important with fiddly terminal gear. Swivels, beads, lead clips and rig tools all have a habit of becoming one annoying mixed-up handful. Zips and mesh won’t stop bad packing, but they give you a fighting chance.
The side pocket also has elasticated bank-stick holders. That’s a dead handy detail for keeping sticks or similar slim items together while you move between swims. Add the accessory straps and you’ve got more flexibility for carrying extra bits, although sensible packing still matters. A rucksack can only do so much when you’ve loaded it like you’re moving house.
Carry comfort has clearly had some thought put in. The shoulder straps are adjustable and padded with Neoprene, while the waist belt and lumbar support help spread the load. That should be welcome on longer walks from the car park or when you’re shifting between likely-looking spots. The caveat is simple: support makes a heavy load nicer, but it doesn’t make it light.
The outer construction uses polyester with Trakker’s n-dura Performance fabric in the familiar Trakker camo, and there’s a hard-wearing waterproof base. That base is especially useful on wet grass, muddy banks and the general damp nonsense that comes with UK fishing. Overall, this is a well-equipped, properly organised rucksack for anglers who like having their tackle close, protected and ready to bosh.

Our take
The clever bit is the built-in workstation
The standout feature is the foldout lay-flat workstation. That gives you a clean, organised spot for tying rigs, sorting hooks or keeping small bits from disappearing into wet grass. The EVA table can also be removed and used separately, which is dead handy when you want the rucksack tucked out of the way.
Storage is well thought through too. There’s a full-length external bankware pocket with a padded divider, three large-capacity external pockets and several zipped mesh compartments inside. Add the elasticated bank-stick holders and this feels aimed squarely at anglers who like their kit sorted, not rattling around in one big cavernous compartment.
What you’re buying
A rucksack that doubles as a tackle station
The NXC Camo Deluxe Rucksack combines a large main load space with a useful spread of pockets. The full-length bankware pocket has a padded divider, while the three external pockets give you quick access to tools and session essentials. Inside, zipped mesh storage under the lid and a zipped main-compartment pocket help stop the small stuff becoming a proper mare.
Its foldout lay-flat workstation is the headline feature. The removable EVA tray gives you a cleaner base for rig work, and it can be positioned in more than one way or used separately. That’s a strong fit for anglers who tie rigs beside the rods rather than doing everything back at home.
Worth knowing. The rucksack weighs around 3 kg empty. Pack it with tackle, bait-related bits and bankware and it can become a hefty carry, so use the waist belt and keep the things you need most often in the outer pockets.
On the bank
Best for organised, well-equipped sessions
This makes most sense for carp and specimen anglers who carry more than a compact box. It has room for terminal tackle, rig tools, bankware and spares, with enough separation to keep the workflow tidy. The workstation is also useful when weather or swim conditions make a normal table awkward.
The padded shoulder straps, waist belt and lumbar support should help when you’re walking a fair distance to the swim. The waterproof base is another bob-on feature for muddy or wet banks. Just be realistic about the load: 55 litres is plenty of capacity, but that can tempt you into packing every cheeky spare you own.
Worth knowing. If your usual session is a small tackle box, a few rigs and a short stroll from the car, this may feel more luggage than you need. For mobile fishing, a smaller bag could be less faff.
Your questions answered
The useful bits before you buy
The EVA workstation is the main reason to choose this over a standard rucksack. It gives you a proper flat area for tying rigs, sorting terminal tackle or laying out tools. Because the tray is removable and usable separately, it isn’t tied to one fixed arrangement around the swim.
The storage mix is aimed at practical bank use. Mesh pockets are handy for smaller items you want to see, the padded divider gives the bankware pocket a bit of protection, and the elasticated side holders help keep bank sticks from flopping about during a move.
Worth knowing. Think of it as a mobile tackle base rather than just something to sling over one shoulder. Pack heavy items low and close to your back, use the waist belt properly and leave a little spare capacity for the bits you inevitably pick up during a session.

- Loads of useful storage, including a full-length bankware pocket and mesh compartments.
