Veals Rig Wallet

The size of the wallet is supposed to be 13in by 10in (33cms X 25.5cms), but the wallet I have actually measured only 9ins (23cms) wide, but who cares!

It's made from a tough blue PVC type material with strong stitched on edging. There are no zips to close the wallet, zips can get clogged with bait residue from your fingers. It rightly relies on Velcro fastening which is placed right around the full inside edge circumference of the wallet making it fully closing. There are no spaces left when it's closed for potential easy access of sand and grit.

The wallet also sports two brass breather holes to allow moisture out should the wallet get damp inside from rain or spray when in use and then left stored for long periods in your box or bag.

It comes with 10 large 25.5cm x 18cm clear zip lock bags, plus 10 medium 15cm x 15cm zip lock bags. Plenty enough for most boat and shore anglers rig requirements.

What Veals have rightly done though, is to have the bags held in place by threaded brass locking screws that allow damaged bags to be easily replaced. The other option is that if you need more space, you can add more bags to those already supplied to increase rig capacity. This is an excellent advantage not offered on many wallets currently available.

The Veals Jumbo Rig Wallet retails for £9.95 + p p, and is available from Veals Mail Order, 306 Central Park, Hengrove, Bristol BS14 9BZ. Tel: 01275 892000 Fax: 01275 892777 E-mail: sales@veals.co.uk.

CONCLUSION
One of the better wallets around due to it's large size and the brass removable locking screws allowing additional zip lock bags to be added or damaged ones replaced.

The velcro around the whole inside edge is another big plus keeping wind blown sand and grit at bay.
