Title: Re: Tackle backpacks Post by Wally13 on Feb 17th, 2015 at 2:05am
I did a fair amount of research on tackle packs and I pulled the trigger on a Wild river Nomad WT#3604. This model comes with 4 Plano 3600 trays, padded sunglasses case, lots of compartments, rain cover, and even has a light. It seems to be pretty descent quality.
Sorry I could not get website to download (You need to Login or Register I wanted a tackle bag that had both shoulder straps and a sternum or waist belt for added stability when portaging and the Nomad had this feature. I am taking this tackle pack on this years Quetico trip for a group of 4. I normally use a Granite Gear "Top of the Thwart " pack I got from Piragis some time ago and a under the seat pack to hold all of my fishing tackle when I solo. ( I do bring a lot of tackle). My 2 rods/reels are covered with rod/reel covers and bungeed to seat drops on side of canoe and bow plate. Like MT I have to also have my Lowrance fish finder along on my Q trips. Wild River is a leader in tackle packs. They offered a solar panel battery/charger that can attach to the Nomad but I didn't bite. Would be nice to charge some electronics. I picked up the Nomad 3604 online at the PBS Boatstore on sale for $132. I see it is still on sale there. They have a smaller version called the "RECON" that is now on sale for $96. |
