I recently got this backpack and like it a lot. Fits all my hard plastics and tackle boxes in the main pouch and all of my soft plastics in the front one. I also have two telescoping rods, which I can stick in each of the diagonal pockets on the very front. I keep my two rods, all of my tackle, a towel, and my multitool/nail clippers in the backpack, which I keep in my car, so I am always ready to fish at a moment's notice.
