Have to be honest & I have had lots of different rucksacks over the years, but the Korda one impresses me every time I use it. Sits properly on my back without making me stoop over when carrying it even though it is fully loaded including a pouch full of leads. Zips are perfectly fine as well and can be opened/closed without having to pull the material tight like on a lot of the others I have used in the past. Material is as good as anything else I have used including the overpriced "Gucci" manufacturers like Cotswold Aquarius (I would go as far as to say that it is better made than any of the CA stuff I have owned old & new). Surprisingly spacious as well tbh.

Yep. Another vote for the korda rucksack from me as well. I've had loads, eps, korum, Union Jack Aqua, thinking anglers Etc etc.
I really liked the TA one but it was just a bit too small and although I didn't find it too uncomfortable, I know a lot of guys struggle to get it to sit right.
The korda is spot on for size, comfort and initial look at build quality it seems sound.

You have used it so you can give a good review of it I am surprised that it's that good I believe you I am happy that they have made something good I think for me the colour puts me off might grow on me

Highly rate the esp rucksack...
speero for me,excellent well thought out and reasonably priced. British made too with great product support if required.

That rucksack is £150 and it doesn't look like it will be very comfortable on the back.
My recommendation is one of these
this
It's £20.50 so 7 times cheaper but will embarrass any of the fishing brands in terms of quality, comfort and general usability.

That's now second on my list
I am still hoping to hear from people that have or had the Nash one
I would love some feed back on that one in particular

Duplicate post sorry

These are probably the best military spec bergen out there. These were made by Lowe Alpine for the Dutch military. They are the nuts. The linked one is the smaller of the two, the largest being 120ltr called the Saracen. If you take a close look at the section that sits on your back, the whole piece is adjustable to fit you perfectly.

Hey dude,
I had the scope ops rucksack for a couple years but recently got rid as I only used half of it! Good rucksack but I just fancied a change.
I got a nice 28litre rucksack from military kit.co.uk, have a gander on there.

If you want something a bit smaller then I have got two of these. What is great about them is you can buy separate pockets and strap them on and off as required.

Thank you for all the replies
I am still struggling to make my mind up
I need something a little larger than the 25 30 ltr rucksacks as I tend to take way to much with me when fishing
I also like the idea of the clam shell type
so I can put all my tackle extra in one half
and my food cooking and extra clothing in the other
then if I go walk about I can just take one half
I am still hoping for some more feed back on the Nash
be for I bite the bullet and make my choice !
