A
chest pack, which can be translated as "chest bag", is a popular alternative to the traditional
fishing vest for fly fishermen, but also for trout and shore predators. When choosing between a
fishing vest and a chest pack, the latter firstly allows you to choose the clothes or jackets you wish to wear, and all you have to do is add this bag. It is also very suitable for wading, as it is very high compared to the water level.
