What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I have been running the Headwaters Hip Pack on full wade days and the compression-molded workstation with fly patch is the feature I use constantly, being able to change flies quickly without digging through a bag or losing anything to the current makes a real difference when the hatch is on. The movable internal divider lets me set up the main compartment exactly how I want it and the YKK Aquaguard zippers have held up through some genuinely wet conditions without any issues."A good day on the water moves at its own pace, and the last thing it needs is a pack that slows it down. The Simms Headwaters Hip Pack is built around the specific rhythms of wade fishing, putting the right tools within reach at the right moments so the focus stays on reading water and making presentations rather than digging through gear.The compression-molded workstation with integrated fly patch handles the most time-sensitive task on the river, letting you swap flies quickly and confidently without fumbling or losing anything to the current. A magnetic closure drop-in pocket sits behind the workstation for items that need to be close but out of the way, while the main compartment with its movable internal divider adapts to whatever combination of boxes, tippet, and tools the day calls for. Durable 630 Denier High-Density Oxford Nylon with TPU and PU coatings stands up to water, abrasion, and the general demands of a hard day wading, and YKK Aquaguard zippers keep moisture out of every compartment. The stowable shoulder strap distributes weight evenly on long walks between runs, and corded attachment loops and a removable net holder round out a pack that thinks through every detail of a day spent fishing moving water.
