With hopes riding high for the continuation of recent improvements in the quality of UK urban waterways, there’s never been a better time to get into more mobile methods of angling. A currently very popular sport in the US that also has a come-back underway here in the UK, urban fishing is quick-paced and is very often free to access. It doesn’t have to be in areas of ‘natural’ water either – the pathed nature of city canals also lends itself well to ranging over large areas of often under-pressured fish habitat. To aid this most flexible of fishing tactics, Greys have developed a Chest & Back Pack combination. Every inch of it is bristling with functions to keep you fishing hard and fast. It has a large collection of pockets, both in the chest section and the main backpack, for stowing bits and bait boxes. Some of these pockets have fishing zingers included inside them, which will hold essential tools such as line cutters on handy retractable winders so you won’t drop and lose them in the water. They are in addition to multiple d-rings and swivel attachments all over the bag, which add even more convenient access to urgently-needed items. Other handy stowing solutions include: two holders for water bottles, neoprene rod straps, and a detachable fly patch. The chest pack is easily and securely fixed on and also quickly removed via a ‘quick click’ system and you can use the two parts together or separately. The chest pack is a low-profile 240mm x 280mm x 70mm (W x H x D) in dimension and the backpack measures up as 360mm x 460mm x 200mm (W x H x D). With luggage like the Greys Chest & Back Pack to aid you, there are now fewer obstacles to getting out there and seeing what’s in the water in the middle of your town or city.
