It's ok but I think I could do with more pockets or better side pockets.
    Best sleep ever if set up correctly with the right insulation. Pack wise, I have several but my favourite is the Osprey Exos 46 which has recently been upgraded by the manufacturer.

    Isn't it nice when someone says "that's a great piece of kit, where did you buy that", then you can modestly reply "you can't buy it, I made it myself". The moral is, it's amazing what you can achieve if you put your mind to it.

    A stream side fly tying vice. It means I can add it to my bush fishing kit.

    Just received my Skookum Bush Tool. made by Rod Garcia.
    The wait was worth it, it is just what i hoped for.
    hopefully get chance to give it a serious workout in the next couple of weeks.
    Cant speak highly enough of Rod, first class knife and a pleasure to deal with.

    Let us know how you get on with it . I've heard a lot of talk about it, including some words from Mors Kochanski.
