Yeah just make sure to find one that balances out your setup. Also not sure if you heard but Madriver fly site is done! They shut it down, I guess all the boys could not agree with the direction of the site. ( sucks the site had so much potential ).

Again congrats and tight lines.

GBA and I were actually discussing gear bags yesterday... do you guys like them better than vests?? We weren't sure which we'd like more.
 
While it doesn't really matte anymore but truth be told there was more to it then just pulling in different directions but that's all I'm gonna say about that because it's still a sore spot with me

Also, the bolded part in your quote should be changed to "some of"... there were some of us unaware of what was going on, and the actions that followed.

yes....you can flip a gear bag to your back, where with a vest, everything is always on the front pockets or on the side

no, just when you have multiple people trying to do things and pull in different directions, it usually doesn't end well
Like I said it is ashame the site had lots of potential, the blogs and write ups where really good I enjoyed the site, its to bad all there hard work was for nothing!

Sorry for that Mad, did not mean to offend, I for one really liked what you where doing.

cheers.
 
So back to the topic, I prefer a vest, found a pack just didnt "sit" right on me. I use a Simms vest and love it .
