fishpondSan Juan Vertical Chest Pack, Tidal Blue

I have bigger bag and tend to use it more . But if you only fishing two hours close to home perfect pack . Just have to figure out water bottle and net .

This is a great little chest pack. Sure, there could be a few more things on it, like pockets, bigger overall and such. However, it's small enough, that fully loaded, it fits in the outside pouch of my Osprey 32L hiking pack. So I don't have to wear this while I'm hiking, which indeed makes you hotter. It has plenty of space on the fly tray for all the flies (20 or so) I will need for the specific are I'm hiking to. The main pouch has plenty of room for the majority of necessities, like hemostat, nippers, extra tippet, a float spray, readers, etc. I will say I only dry fly fish. It may be cramped if you're taking all the stuff for Nymphing, but for my purposes, it has filled the need nicely.

This bag was much smaller than I thought. . My fault, pay attention to product dimensions. Again my fault. Bag does seem to be good quality, just not what I was looking for.

This would be a good bag if you’re only carrying a box of dry flies or nymphs, but that’s about it. I’ll keep it to use as my GoPro bag.

The only complaint I have is it’s not made for really skinny people. It’s extremely loose on my husband but other than that it’s fantastic.
