Description
The Daiwa Tournament Cool 30.0L is a high-capacity, heavy-duty thermal insulated luggage system engineered specifically for match and specimen anglers who need to keep large quantities of live bait, deadbaits, or food and drink in prime condition during long sessions.

Pro Tip
Maximizing Cooling Performance: To get the best out of the 30L capacity, cool the bag down before loading by dropping a frozen ice block inside 30 minutes prior to packing. Always pack your live bait tubs at the bottom directly against ice packs, and layer a damp towel over the top before closing to create an insulated air lock every time the main zip is opened.
