When you leave your boat to scout a section of water or inspect a particular line the throw bag should be the one thing you grab as you exit\/leave your boat. <\/p>\n<p>Back in the day many throw bags were flat and would fit in the back of your PFD, this was great as you would always have a bag with you. However, to keep the pack size small the rope was often quite short\/thin and when put under tension could act like a cheese wire. Having a flat almost envelope type bag also made repacking very time consuming. As thicker line is more widely used now most throw bags have almost exclusively taken on a barrel design. This often includes a wider opening to facilitate easy repacking.<\/p>\n<p>I have owned a number of throw bags over the last 20+ years. They have ranged from small 10m lines that pack into flat pockets, 30m mesh bagged lines and almost everything in-between. As the years have gone on I have settled on the HF range as my preferred option. I am not sponsored by or get cheaper deals from HF, it&#8217;s simply through use and experience that has led me toward the HF brand.
