About the Sonik; this looks interesting! Does the main bag itself dry quicker because of the bottom vent? Or does the water leak out quickly but the inside of the main (unventilated) bag stays moist long?

Nope no leaks at all works like a dry bag just fold it over a few times, it's a solid product for sure sure

The Sonik one caught my eye last night, it'd make it much easier to dry being openable at both ends. Has yours ever leaked ? Trying to get my head around rolling it up at the bottom making it water tight.
I've been drying my failed Trakker one since Saturday and even on the washing line in the sun it was just creating condensation which went back down to the bottom   On inspection it has some small nicks on the outside but they don't look big enough to cause a leak, and besides, I thought they were sealed on the inside.
The next thought...take my almost dry Trakker one and fill it with water to see where it's leaking...oh the madness

I'd just stick some dettol and a bit of bleach and some hot water, close the top and give it a good shake around. Repeat, then leave to dry out.
A little spray of dettol in it and everything will be peachy.

I used a sonik one for about the last 5 years at a guess. Still going strong and normally sub £20.
It has a roll and clip arrangement at both ends to seal. One end the opening and the other with a mesh. The mesh end is great just unclip and unroll the bottom end when getting back from the lake to allow any excess water to escape and also to allow the net / sling dry out to stop any rot and residual stink. If it failed I would buy another in a heart beat

This is my issue with the ESP one, its good and can fit net and retainer in easily, but due to the material its nigh on impossible to turn it inside out to clean between sessions. So you get your net and retainer clean and not stinking, then put it back in a stinking sleeve.

Luckily I now have a van!
Word of caution though as I have an old trakker welded one and it’s 100% water tight - but who wants lake water stinking in the bottom of a bag between uses?
I’d go ikea type bag, saves the mess but also means you’d take out and dry as it’s not too ‘fitted’

Take a look at divers dry bags, loads of manufacturers make them in all sorts of shapes and sizes from dirt cheap to silly expensive.

Thanks for the suggestions guys
I should have added I roll my net up in my sling.
In the old days for my net I just used a rod tube with the cap siliconed on the bottom, shame they dont do a rectangular one...hmm..or do they...off to nosey!
Edit, the rod tube was Mk1, then it was one of the triangular rod tubes the 1st gen Fox Warriors came in, cut to size...memories ...might go back to it!

Esp.
I bought the smaller drennan one for my 36" folding barbel nets. I can just about squeeze two nets into the one sleeve.
Tough pvc type material and welded seams, so no leakage or smells.
ESP Wet Net Sleeves
They are designed to store wet landing nets and retainer slings so that after a successful fishing trip all the water and smell stays in the sleeve and not in the boot of your car. There are two sleeves available – the wet net sleeve is 50” (127cm) long and large enough to store one landing net. The top of the sleeve is simply rolled down and clipped together to make it watertight.
The larger Wet Net and Retainer Sleeve is 52” (132cm) long and wide enough to accommodate two landing nets and a retainer sling. Perfect for the prolific angler! These two sleeves are simple, hardwearing products that serve a very useful purpose.
Features:
Heavy duty waterproof PVC material
Welded Seams
Smell stays in the sleeve and not in the car
Water tight

Can anyone recommend a stink bag they've had for a fair while that doesn't leak please?
I've got a Trakker one and though a few years old I think it's been used less than 20 times, not abused, and last night I had puddle on the floor underneath it 
Shame is, I have another new one of these too!
The tight arse in me wonders if it can be sealed, the lazy sod in me can't be bothered
