The bag is even with the front hatch so it does not get in the way, except to open the front hatch, which I never do out in the open ocean. The Yellow in the picture was 34 lbs after bleeding. When they get that large the tail is sticking out a bit. I've had to put the tail over to one side because my feet kept hitting the tail while pedaling the mirage drive. Dealing with the large Yellow when bringing it on board or when sliding a little forward to get it in the bag is part of the fun that makes the kayak a little rocky and less stable, so I always hang both my legs over the side straddling the kayak to get better stability.
