In reply to Post #20 Thanks for your reply. I will think about it a bit more. It's a lot of money for fabric stitched in a square.

In reply to Post #23 Yes, looked at that range too, but then I read someone mentioning bad zips there too....

In reply to Post #26 sick of waiting for the 12ft tri sleeve tbh...would of been one of the 1st things id brought out

In reply to Post #23 Range is getting bigger but no plans for a 13ft tri sleeve

In reply to Post #21 None of them zip one handed or smoothly around corners one or two handed. Having to tug at a zip isn't good quality imo
The rucksack I had before was an Aqua one and they all did and were thicker and just felt more robust.

The Carp Life luggage gets some decent feedback.

In reply to Post #20 I cant say having to zip the pouches up using two hands.has ever been a really inconvenience tbh, when I say the zips are good I mean the quality of them, how robust and hard wearing they are. not if they zip one handed.

In reply to Post #15 None of the zips freely zip up/around mainly because the fabric sags/bows especially if there is any weight in the pockets.
For example none of the three zips on the front pouches zip up freely. I have to hold the pouch with one hand and zip with the other hand.
Same with the top/main opening it just won't zip up or open just using one hand. I have to hold the fabric in one hand and zip with the other.
If the fabric was stiffer I don't think this would be too much of an issue. Royally p's me off considering how much it cost me. Don't really know who's military grade zips they've used because they are naff.
With regards to the shoulder straps they don't pull tight, I have to bend over so the pack is flat on my back then pull each strap tight separately, again having to use two hands rather than just tugging it with one hand standing upright.
It really is a pile of pap or maybe I'm just being unreasonable and shouldn't expect military grade zips to zip up one handed?
It is a real shame there are no decent tackle shops left down this way with a selection of ones to look at and try and just about the only reason I'm still using the Speero rucksack because I can't afford to buy another duffer no matter how good people on the internet says it is

Had a Speero compact since they came out. No issues at all . 6ft 2 and zero issues with comfort. Modular clip on cool bag on top does all food for an overnighter. So impressed I have bought a lot more of the luggage range since.

+1 for the speero. Love the modularity of it.
I often go fishing with the missus, so I've got clip-on bags with her alarms etc. that I can just clip-on when she's joining me & leave ready to go at home when it's just me

In reply to Post #15 I would honestly look at the Korda 30L or TA rucksack. I recently switched to the TA one and absolutely love it!

In reply to Post #14 What was the problem with the zips on your compact rucksack Dave?
