TIA Ben I purchased the Orvis Safe Passage Backpack on a closeout last year for $59.oo before the now model came out. I've used it up on the McCloud River in Northern CA the Memorial Day weekend, makes hiking with gear very easy. I store my waders and boots inside the backpack along with other items and my 4pc rod cases on the outside. The new model is on sale for $111.30. http://www.orvis.com/store/product_c...&feature_id=17 -tom |

Waders (and particularly wading boots) and backpacks go together like fly fishing and canoes. :-) Bill (who honestly would not want to add his waders and wading boots to his pack weight) (and who, equally honestly, quite enjoys fly fishing from a canoe, but just couldn't pass up using the line) |

With all the five or more piece rods available today, there is a practically unlimited variety of packs available that will do the job. Any recommendations you get here will tell you only what you now already know and that whoever makes the recommendation is satisfied with a particular pack for reasons that must be based on arbitrary and highly idiosyncratic tastes. Your best bet is to rely on your own past experience (if any) and to ferret out a brick and mortar store with a large selection, and then try them out in the company of a knowledgeable friend or (if such can be found) salesperson. Cabela's, Gander Mountain, Bass Pro Shop, and REI, are all likely candidates if you can get to any of them. There are many other smaller (and more specialized) vendors. Wolfgang |
