Fishpond Vests

[beeker]

I'm seriously thinking about purchasing one of Fishpond's Wasatch or Wildhorse pack vests. I'll have to do it online, but before I spend that kind of dough is there anyone out there that has any experience with them. Specifically, how do they stand up durability wise, are they comfortable, is the pack on the Wasatch big enough, etc? Thanks.

Haven't used the products but one thing I notice is missing is a way to strap a 4-piece rod tube to the back. I really like being able to case my rod at the end of a trip and have both hands free when I'm walking out. That and they seem a little pricy...

I have the Gore range pack vest....................i like the accessiblity........................can't comment on durabilty as I only wore it for the second time today. "The one size fits most" give smaller guys (5'10........190#)lots of play with the adjustable straps (shoulders and waist) to achieve a comfy fit.

I got a Fishpond Guide Pack for X-mas, it looks cool and fits on nicely but I have not used it yet. I like that it can be a chest pack or worn on the hip as well.

I have a fishpond vest..one of the earlier models, 4 years old, I love it, compared to the new stuff..not much different, they haven't changed the styling much at all. durable and light (empty of course) with fully adjustable shoulder and mid section straps. only problem i ever had was, the outer layer of one of the accessory loops became frayed and unraveled.
