The ones I got were PVC I think I just cemented them together with that foul smelling PVC glue.

You can cap the bottom so the hooks don't get stuck in the bottom of the tube, always happen's when fish are breaking. Drill hole for drainage. P.

I got sick of the round tubes in my bag always coming unglued and slipping around in the bag. I took two plano plastic boxs and cut the latch side off on the saw. I drilled a 1/4" holes in the bottom of the divisions for drainage and I epoxied a few 3/4" spacers between the hinged sides and slipped the asssembly into my bag. They fit tight, but they hold a dozen plugs with plenty of tin in the spaces created with the spacers between the boxs.. when the bag becomes jumbled because of dumping the gear inside, I simply yank the insert out and open the boxs to clean up the gear.

The only gripe I have with all the bags is that they are not deep enough to handle big wood!

I wrap duct tape around all the tubes after they are glued together. Never have come apart. There must be about a million ways to carry your gear. P.

because they are one peice and made to drain its kinda the end price of going through your own trouble....labour...
they are a little heavier than the tubes from njt but SOLID.
