As per the title, I'm after a decent rucksack. Does any one have any feedback on the ones I've mentioned?

The TA one would be my choice as it's very compact but can hold a lot of gear. Kinda off topic but I have the Saber rucksack which is basically the same as the TA one (minus the central compartment not having separate sections).

I've heard that the TA one isn't hugely comfortable. I have just been looking at the saber but no idea if they are decent quality.

found the TA one too small and very uncomfortable

No complaints about the speedo so far from me.

Ta one is nice but dreadfully uncomfortable even on short walks

I've got the DPM one and it's very comfy and high quality. Dunno if it helps but a mate has the saber rod bag and has had it for years!

I have got the TA and the ESP. I much prefer the ESP for carping. To me it's the perfect size for my carp angling. I find the TA too small and now I only use it when I go dropshotting for zander and perch.
I wish TA would make a larger version the same size as the ESP.

Good morning,
I can only comment on the ESP one, it's a great size, comfortable and like most back packs these days infinitely adjustable, good Zips and clips and appears after 18 months of use to be well made.
I strap my unhooking mat to it using the pre fitted straps, large tackle box in font pocket, flask and soft food in side pockets, everything else inside all in all spot on.

I have the Speero rucksack and couldn't be happier!
Well made, comfortable on your back and u can add extra bags if more space is required.
Sold my Cotswold stuff and bought it, best move ever.

sounds like any of them will suit your needs, I have the speero one and find it brilliant tbf, comfy with the option to add on if I want to take items I wouldn't use on a day/short session. I find the outer pockets well thought out for items most people use and want quick access to or first to be used on a session.
