Great bags, I've had/used a couple for about 4 years now, great for stashing behind the kayak seat, very duable. Recently lent them to a friend that stored them wet now have a terrible smell/taste any recommendations for cleaning?

I normally use little splash of bleach and hot water and let them sit. If that hasn't worked, and it sounds like it hasn't, I'd try a couple tablespoons of ammonia and hot water... but you will have to be very, very careful to rinse them out *thoroughly*. Ingesting any portion of ammonia is a bad idea. However, ammonia can clean most anything.

Thanks for the answers guys. I came to this site to find a good way to get rid of the smell. Bleach didn't work too well for me, so I'm going to try the Efferdent next.

Efferdent tablets, one tablet per liter. Fill with very warm water, drop in the tablets, put the cap on and roll it around. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes, drain and rinse. Dry it out using the practice golf balls.

2 tablespoons of bleach per liter of water, let it sit for about a half an hour, rinse it out, leave the cap off and poof it up a bit to open all the nooks and crannies, let it completely air dry for a couple days...don't let your friend borrow it again
