I can tell out of a lot of reps you have used them thoroughly. I’m planning on staring with the thunderhead sling pack. Thanks for a straight forward review.
Perfect timing! Welll for me finding this review as I'm going to look at these today hopefully. I've been watching your trippin on trout vids for awhile now so appreciate how hard you are on your gear. I'm actually a lure fishermen but find that fly gear is just way better thought out and works. I've tried a few 'other' bags and I'm always compromising in more ways than I'd like in regards to features or in Alex speak 'hangy off bits' 🤣 and comfort. But the other thing I've been considering recently is safety. I'm often off by myself in the middle of nowhere in a river and I realise what that means and a submersible pack that would actually keep me afloat in an emergency might be a good idea. Great honest review and I'm gonna do what you say and go and poke one l, bit of a drive down Hereford way (UK) but I need to get hands on to get a real impression.
another great review from alex. can't beat fishpond...been running the backpack and hip pack as well for a couple years now. have a tendency to wade a little deep and take a dip from time to time and as long as you've got'm zipped up everything inside stays dry as...i just have a habit of leaving the hip pack zipper open lol
Can I ask. I’d be using mine a fair bit in the saltwater on the flats and the surf. Do you need to do anything with zips against rusting ? Or just at the end of the day hose it down with freshwater ? Love the look of them.

Yep Alex is the man. I've done the same with my Yeti submersible. Pain in the ass if you don't close that last cm of zipper! haha

How did you run it into the ground? Did the bag fail, break etc and if so what failed/broke??
Would love to know how you organize the inside. It’s just a big hole and all my stuff moves around. Anybody have a solution?
Awesome vid man loved it On a real note, don't they have a lifetime guarantee, and if so, can I buy your broken one lmao I'll take it back
😂
How do you attach a water bottle?
Alex is a great angler, you can trust him.
My only gripe with mine is how big it is. It’s really pretty huge.
Ya I think it’s a bit bigger than my Yeti Panga. But i like the added features and adaptions.
@@intoflyfishing I agree 100%. It’s a bit too big but the accessories are great. I really like the extra rod holder.
@@intoflyfishing can I know any amazon link to get that magnetic rod clamp
@@mudduck2520 mmm it’s a pretty thick material so I wouldn’t worry about it too much. But just make sure to avoid snags I guess.
Can always go with the smaller one
Hey where did you get the magnet rod holder? I did not see it on the website.
Same question here… where do you get that?
@@fmta22 It comes with the old version of the backpack
It does look like a nice product, bit it comes with a very large price tag. It is out of my budget.
with wading you don`t want a float on your back .....
