from a guy who carries a pack on my back ie. backpack---when i do backcountry camping and such---i have no idea what a knapsack is...a sack that carries knaps???
 
Think Knapsack is like one of those old-school backpacks with hundreds of zippers and hidden bags...! REALLY REALLY COOL STUFF BTW!!!
Knapsack, back pack?? Mine is old school with the aluminum frame. It only has 5 zippers though and 7 compartments. One section holds 12 cans of beer easily :) 4 of the pockets hold the cans as they become empty. And one compartment holds all gear necessary that I don't carry in my vest. Any other questions? :mrgreen:

I discovered this spot a few years ago and was quite impressed on the lack of pressure due to how urban it is. A fair amount of fish definately get up this far considering downstream obstacles... With the how high the river is I'm sure fish will have no problem running up the barrier, but before the water was pretty low and seems almost impossible for fish to get up.
 
Backpack is a type of bag with 2 straps that you put over both shoulders and the body rest on your back...see illustration.

knapsack is a type of bag with 2 straps but you only put one strap on one shoulder depending which one you prefer...usually used by the younger generation...see illustration.

So a backpack is for carrying backs? A knapsack holds knaps. A rucksack must hold rucks :)
I got it now.
