Know before you buy
Yes, the pack is designed for versatility. You can wear it as a chest pack for easy access while wading, as a hip pack to keep your shoulders free, or over the shoulder as a sling.
It is specifically designed to attach to the Orvis Bug-Out Backpack. This allows you to combine the pack with a larger bag for longer trips while keeping your essential tackle easily accessible.
The 3L capacity is best suited for minimalist fly-fishing. It comfortably holds a few fly boxes, extra leaders, spools of tippet, and essential tools, but it is not intended for bulky items or large amounts of extra clothing.
No, the pack is not waterproof. While the CORDURA® ECO material is durable and weather-resistant, it is not submersible, so you should keep sensitive electronics in a dry bag if you are wading in deep water.
The pack includes a dedicated Tippet Whippet docking station for quick spool changes and side docks specifically designed to hold your forceps and nippers securely.
Yes, the shoulder strap is removable. This allows you to strip the pack down to just the hip belt or tuck away the straps entirely when you are attaching it to the Bug-Out Backpack.
