I forgot to mention that when I fished the Isla a month or so ago it was the first outing for my new chest Pack.
The one I used was the Airflo Chest Pack which is slim and although maybe not as elegant as some of the more expensive types it certainly pleased me (I got it from e-bay for £7.99). I liked the look of the smallest Orvis one but I felt that carrying only one fly box was as uncomfortable as fishing naked (I'd assume).
Strangely enough even before I'd used it I bought a Snowbee one on a pure impulse when getting my permit from Neils' shop in Forfar???? I've yet to use this one.
Anyway I'm looking forward to getting out on the river again sporting my lovely chest pack.
Thanks for the memories Orvis Tac-L-Pac....... we'll meet again.
Sandy,
Have you had any advancement on finding a suitable one?
