Perfect size, comfortable
Love this bag! Small enough to stay out of my way while casting, but plenty of storage for boxes of flies. The front pocket is the perfect size for my reel (granted it’s on the smaller side - any bigger and it may not zip), and the clip loops are sturdy and well placed. It’s very lightweight, and the neck strap sits very comfortably.

Great quality!!
I had looked at getting a Orvis pack similar to this, and I’m glad I didn’t. For the extreme price difference I went with the cheaper. It’s comfortable, it’s light, it’s functional, and has great adjustments for different sizes.

Seems nice but did not work for my purposes
I'm not a fly fisher-- I'm an entomologist. I was excited about this chest pack because it had the little zip-down shelf pocket and I figured I could use that to write field labels. I wasn't wrong (although it was difficult to zip and unzip, and it didn't zip down to flat like I'd anticipated) but the pack itself was far too thin for my purposes. They list the height and length of the pack, but not its depth. You can fit a tackle box in there (I tried the one I keep for rearing grubs) so don't worry if that's your concern! But if you want to fit a kill jar or large aspirator (like Mike Ferro's Scholar's Aspirator [Hamuli, Volume 11 issue 2, if you're interested!]) I would advise looking elsewhere. I ended up getting a binocular chest pack.TL;DR: it's nice and seems well-made. The neck strap on the one I got was a little prickly, but that seemed to just be a minor sewing defect. It will fit a tackle box, and the little foam thing for sticking flies in seems sturdy. If you want to put thicker things in it, it won't work, unfortunately. Tackle box is about the max depth it'll hold.

Great value, nice pack!
I just received it a couple days ago. I've not actually used it yet but my first impressions are very good. It appears to be well made. There are no sloppy loose seams. Zippers work effortlessly and smooth. It's a perfect size for me. My previous chest pack was too large. There are just enough attachment points for how I set it up. I have 2 maxima spools and a large fly box in the larger rear compartment. My leaders are there in a back mesh compartment. I found the tippett holder that's sewn into the front compartment useless and a space waster. I cut it out. Its light and comfortable. The neck pad has the same kind of mesh my old pack has and its irritating to my neck. I will attach some kind of more suitable lambs wool padding on top. .So far I'm very pleased. I will report back about durability later this coming summer. What a bargain!!!

Great Little Pack
This chest pack is great! It holds just the right amount of gear for a day wading trip. It protrudes out a bit when it is completely full, but it's nothing that has gotten in my way. The only issue that I have run into is the neck strap sliding around when my net is attached to it. It's not terrible but sometimes it ends up over on your shoulder instead of behind your neck. Other than that this thing is a great value for the money. If you are looking for a well made but inexpensive, lightweight, durable, convient chest pack to hold your fly fishing gear, then this is for you!

Great for fishing in shore
This was the perfect size and fit for fishing from the shore while walking along the bank. No need to go back to the shore to tie up or change lures.

Great for lightweight fishing
Great if u have light gear. But you can’t load it up. I have 3 fly boxes and my weights and floats n other things inside n it’s reallyyyyy tight and a pain to pull things out n put them back.

Perfect size for a day trip
I'm really loving this chest pack. It fits my extra large Lost Creek double sided fly box in the large pocket with some room to spare. For reference, the box measures 7.5"L x 5"W x 1.5"H. I also store several leaders and Rio Top Ride in there too. If I used a smaller fly box there would be even more room for stuff like a sandwich and bottle of water....hrm maybe I should get a smaller box!I have 4 tippet spools, various strike indicators and doo-dads in the small zippered pocket and a small stringer in the outer mesh pocket. I have hemostats and nippers on zingers, a floatant caddy and Smith Creek rod clip dangling from the exterior. The neck pad has a sturdy plastic attachment point for a magnetic net release. I've fallen in the water and the bag dries out quick. Its light and comfortable to wear and stores the essentials for a day trip. Easy front access makes fly and tippet changing a breeze and it doesn't get caught up while hiking thru brush. Only downside is the velcro fly patch...the soft foam gets chewed up quick from the hooks.

Great Quality and functionality
I needed a chest pack that would not interfere with PFD and this did the trick. The quality of the materials is excellent and fits comfortably. I can get 4 fly boxes in the main compartment and flotation fluid etc in the front one. It basically fits all my "need to hand" items, including various external lugs for tippet holder and hemostat forceps etc.

Just right for me
I bought its bigger brother but was a little too large and cumbersome so I exchanged it for this model. Sits nicely on my chest, is big enough for what I want to take to the riverside and most importantly doesn't get in the way of my casting.

Satisfecho
Por el precio que pagué aprovechando el descuento valió la pena porque a su precio regular está sobre valuado, es buen artículo para pesca con mosca.

Great little pack for a day of Fly fishing.
Had to break the habit of carrying everything due to weight and being cumbersome.This pack has the capacity for all you need. It’s also easier on your back.
