A storage bag (100) includes a main tube (102) extending from a first end to a second end and defining a first inner surface and outer surface. The main tube includes a first angled edge (128) and a second angled edge (132) extending from the first end of the main tube and forming a first angled interface. The storage bag also includes a port tube (104) extending from a first end to a second end and defining a second inner surface and outer surface. The second end of the port tube includes a third angled edge and a fourth angled edge extending from the second end of the port tube, forming a second angled interface. The second angled interface of the port tube is positioned over the first angled interface of the main tube. A portion of the port tube not overlapping the main tube is sealed to itself to form an angled drainage area (182).
