FishPond Canyon Creek Chest Pack

I bought this in combination with the Firehole Backpack. It clips into those straps neatly, and gives you a perfect all-day adventure pack setup for remote fishing. If I'm fishing a more accessible stream, I can unstrap it from the backpack, and use it stand alone as a medium-sized chest pack. For me, it's the perfect size for the tackle I need on the stream. It comfortably holds one large fly box, a second medium sized fly box, and all of the bits and bobs like leaders and indicators. I use the fishpond accessory to hold 6 spools of tippet externally. If I'm fishing near home on an accessible stream I can unclip it from the Firehole pack and use it with its own suspension strap, which is very comfortable. It's fab used that way. All that said, at $80 it's pricey. If you're using it as part of the system like I am (or want the option to do so in the future), it's worth it. If you just need a medium sized chest pack, there are probably a number of other packs that will serve you just as well for a lot less money.

Super product

This pack is my new “GoTo” pack! I also have the Fishpond Switchback Pro, belt and pack system. I removed the pack from the belt and attached the shoulder strap to the pack instead of the belt. I wear the belt separately with a rod holder, a bait box, and pair of pliers. I carry the pack with the shoulder strap while hiking to my fishing spot. I fish with the chest pack and belt on, while the other pack sits on the shore with additional gear. This combo works perfectly for my style of river fishing for salmon and steelhead! I love the product and highly recommend it! I will be purchasing more from Fishpond. FISH ON!

Build quality of this bag is amazing! Perfect size to fit my minimalist trout gear. I can't wait to fish with this.

My favorite pack. This pack fits my jig nymph/dry fly setup perfectly. I am a minimalist as I don't like much weight on me as it wears me down this pack gives me enough room with added accessories of course that I can fit everything I need including my light weight rain jacket, tippet with holder, leaders , 2 small boxes of flies plus ,hemos,nippers,,floatant,the fishpond trash pod,indicator wax ,indicators,keys ,phone, and my fishpond net on the back include net holder along with alittle room to spare . It's also very comfy and I can see it lasting awhile if I take care of it. I think they put alot of thought from experience into this pack and best of all it's made from fishpond so you know the quality is there
