Bought a White River chest pack today at Bass Pro. Normally $44.95, but Bobby Jr. threw in a little discount from last weeks special. Thanks! They sell the fishpond one too but for the extra money and style it wasn't worth my extra twenties. I was just looking for something not so big and bulky but able to carry what I would have in my vest. I realized that the vest I wear is too uncomfortable to wear in late spring and summer when it is hot, and my four pocket Columbia shirts don't quite hold what I need in a day's fishing. So I bought it and every thing from flies to flotant leaders and tippet etc. fit nicely in a few zippered compartments. Extra big zippers and the front pouch acts as an extra fly box. It zippers open and folds down and has a foam insert. It will be nice on hot days when I want to wear Shortsleeves, Shorts and Sandals as I wont sweat as much, and still not have to leave any gear behind. It is quite small and holds enough that it isn't a compromise. Also it is less conspicuous in the car/truck so wifey doesn't know If im sneaking to the local stream...Maybe.
