Orvis Safe Passage Guide Sling Pack - Olive / Grey

Review by Paul Whillock

Overall a really great sling pack. Definitely one of the better designed packs available. My fishing mate had owned the regularsized Orvis safe passage sling pack and loaned it to me for a few trips. It was a great pack but the size let it down. I have to say that if you are on the market to buy one or the other then I would seriously consider spending a tad more and buying the Guide version as it has a far better storage capacity. In this pack I can fit a few mediumsized fly boxes together with all the normal stuff that one might need for a wanderingtypeofday on the river. Plenty of internal zipup pockets and a neat little hidden zinger slot which allows a pair of nippers to be partially concealed in an external pocket . . . very handy. There is even enough room to pack a waterproof jacket inside and a snack too.However take note; this pack is not without a few minor design flaws: the net hanging point is awkwardly positioned nowadays I hang my net at the lower point of the chest strap where it attaches ...
