Rucksacks make considerably more sense than huge carryalls when you regularly walk the lake.
The ESP Quickdraw Rucksack is aimed at that mobile style of fishing.
The advantage is obvious: both hands remain free.
That matters when you’re also carrying rods, a landing net, bucket or unhooking mat.
Good tackle rucksacks also make organisation easier by keeping regularly used items accessible instead of buried underneath everything else.
For stalking, short sessions and moving onto showing fish, a sensible rucksack can dramatically reduce how much equipment you end up carrying.
The temptation with carp luggage is always buying something enormous.
Then, because you’ve got the space, you fill it.
Six months later you’re pushing 30kg of tackle around the lake and can’t remember what’s in half the pockets.
A smaller rucksack forces you to think about what you actually use.
Terminal tackle.
Scales.
Camera.
Food.
Water.
Few essentials.
Done.
That’s often enough.
Anyone changed from a carryall to the ESP Quickdraw Rucksack?
