    Mark - if I were you, I would look for something else. This bag lasted me exactly 2 trips (albeit quite hard ones) before it ripped in various places, the zipper failed and the shoulder straps seperated from the pack itself.

    Awesome

    Thanks for the info...guess I will then steer clear of that bag then.

    Can you guys maybe tell me which Columbia and North Face bags you use?? I had a look at a couple now but not sure which ones functions best...

    This one http://www.columbiasportswear.co.za/...product_id=479 looks pretty cool but I'm not sure if its water proof as most of my fishing is surf based..

    I found this (http://www.overboardafrica.co.za/pro...0ltr-blue.html) awhile ago but yet ot order and test it, but maybe it helps to have some options. It looks like a good quality product/company.
