![]() Eric i'm currently mulling over the purchase of a backpack for fly Eric fishing. Eric i'm looking for something which offers enough room for waders Eric and maybe a small one person tent. tie ons for a sleeping bag Eric would be good too of course. Hi Eric! I can give you one recommendation. I have been looking at the available models, because I have a similar problem: I have to select a daypack for myself, but it would also be good if my wife could use the same pack as a backpack when we're hiking. Therefore I have to find a compromise between a hiking backpack and a daypack. I've taken a look at a broad range of products from different manufacturers, and I think that I will end up choosing some model from the Deuter Futura series (see http://www.deuterusa.com/Product/Hiking.htm). All of the models have tie-in positions suitable for tubes on both sides of the pack. The packs seem to have a solid, rugged construction. They ride high, even the 42 liter model - this is important when you're carrying the pack when wading. The carrying system is a bit futuristic, but it should also keep you cooler - a very good property for a daypack. Notice that the 22 and 28 liter models do *not* have attachment rings for a sleeping or something similar, while the other models do have them. Hope this helps.
