	From jigs and spinners to the transportation of said jigs and spinners.......I use the previously mentioned lure wraps for big stuff and they work great. I also use the worm binders which allow for various spinnerbait type lures to tuck in very nicely. All goes into the ULTIMATE fishing organizer......an Orvis pack. Big enough to take everything in one pack and with enough variety of storage options to make ease of access a breeze. The front side pouches fit the worm binders and the main rear compartment houses 2 plano boxes. Smaller zip pockets house snips and sundry items. Last year I omitted most of the tackle and housed my depth finder and rod holder. This pack goes across with the boat and is very comfortable. I own 2 of them as one was starting to show some wear. Glad I did as they have become rather pricey.......but a fellow has to have priorities does he not? (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links)

	ST - I think I'll ask Stu what happened to this product. It looks very good! Al -- Nice pack! I like the idea of a pack. Being cheap, I might just convert a small pack into a tackle-pack. Maybe I could stencil "My other pack is an ORVIS" on the back. Waddayathink? prouboy

	Quote: Maybe I could stencil "My other pack is an ORVIS" on the back. IF your going to do that, might as well go for the "Rolls Royce Silver Cloud" of tackle packs. (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links) I think it comes with a "Portage Monkey" For that price they should offer a "Nubile" option.

	ST -- I actually like this one better: (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links) I honestly don't get Duluth Pack. Who are they marketing to? Their gear is soooo overpriced! Great logo, but seriously.... prouboy

	The Duluth pack looks to be well constructed and will probably last 2 lifetimes. Plus its made in America by expert craftsmen who are proud of what they do and want to get paid. There is nothing quite like the orvis pack.......it is the ultimate. Not to big, not to small. The front pouches fit worm binders where you can slide all sorts of hard to store lures and plastics in the zip lock sleeves. The front pouches can also be employed to carry big lures encased in lure wraps. Super shad raps fit and I can usually get 4 or 5 big lures per pouch if pike is my target. The pouches are fastened together via a buckle while you are traveling so they don't flop around. A front D ring is an ideal place to clip my boga. There are 2 back compartments. The larger fits 2 plano boxes in descending size. Wire leaders can be stored in a plastic tube of sorts and remain straight as they are stood upright in the back of the pack. There is also a waterproof pocket.......nice added touch for permits etc. The back of the pack also has webbing. This is where I store my collapsible aluminum net (made in finland where people know fish ).........very handy to net walleyes. If fishing is your thing and you carry a fair amount of gear then this pack is tops. Slap it on while you carry your boat........perfect!

Who are they marketing to? Their gear is soooo overpriced! Great logo, but seriously.... prouboy That Cabelas pack will do everything the over priced ones will do and leave plenty of money left for more fishing lures. Orvis / Filson are excellent products, but your paying a big premium for that Logo. I've wore Carhart work clothes for years until they became "kool" because the rappers adopted them and the price just got ridiculous. A friend of mine lives in Boston. On a river trip up to Maine in the early 80's, he planned to stop at the big LL Beans store in Freeport. Open 24/7 way back then. Beans was just getting known nationally and soon with some favorable reviews for it's rugged/practical gear, it became a must spot to shop to the emerging "Yuppie" crowd. My friend said that he used to buy their signature khaki pants for under $20, and their best/warmest shirts were about the same. Then the Yuppie crowd arrived and the prices went up to almost 2x on everything in the store. Locals who made/supported the company were just about priced out unless they caught a sale. All my workout wear is non-logo and the same fabric/quality as the overpriced logo gear. It's bad enough much of the things we buy are made for pennies on the dollar in foreign sweatshops, it's adding insult to injury by paying double for something because some already well compensated pro jock has been paid millions to endorse it.

	Au contrair' (thats french) on the Cabelas pack........ Shall I be nitpicky? Ahem.......what is so great about the Orvis pack is the front pouches balance everything out so perfectly. I have weight off the rear and the front.......nothing to throw me off balance while I portage the already unbalanced boat. I absolutely loathe falling while in the woods and take pride in my ability to have a reasonable pace while rarely biting the dust. The Cabelas pack looks sort of big and clunky and heavy as well.........but I could be mistaken.

	Anyone ever see/use this one? I don't get the "lighted" part, seems WAY superfluous, but I like the rest, at least on the screen. (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links) prouboy
