Tackle Backpack

I have this backpack, and it works pretty well. I've got three 3700 boxes and a terminal tackle box from Plano in it. I keep a separate soft plastic bag and just throw in what I need when I go out. It holds all of the tackle I have (I don't have much) and it stays in my car at all times.

While I don't think the TW bag is trash, I would agree that a regular backpack it better. There is a level of convenience with the bag being designed to hold tackle, but I have an REI daypack that also stays in my car for different things and I have put that on after wearing the TW bag to move from fishing a stream to a little light hiking and the difference was astounding. The weights were similar, but the padding and distribution was leaps and bounds beyond what the TW bag has.

 

Long story short, if you plan on actually using the backpack as intended and wearing it a lot, better to go with a pack made for hiking and transform it into your tackle bag.

TW Backpack holds a ton of gear three 3700 and one 3600

also comes with many compartments fishing the bank with it works great or throwing it on the back of a kayak works great but hiking well it’s a little clumsy for hiking. When river fishing or hiking it’s best to back as minimal as possible you don’t want to take everything and the kitchen sink with you.
