The Guidewater Hip Pack is designed for anglers who want serious waterproof protection without carrying a full backpack. The IPX-7 waterproof construction keeps gear protected even during full immersion, making it ideal for wading deep, fishing in heavy rain, or travelling through wet environments where ordinary packs eventually fail.
Its 9L capacity comfortably holds fly boxes, leaders, tippet, tools, cameras, snacks, and spare layers while still maintaining a streamlined profile that stays out of the way while casting and wading. The internal organiser pocket helps separate smaller items and can even be attached externally for quick access when needed.
Comfort is a major strength of the design. The hydrophobic back panel and strap don’t absorb or retain water, helping the pack stay lightweight throughout the day rather than becoming heavier as conditions worsen. The pass-through lumbar storage also gives you a clean, practical place to carry a landing net without getting in the way.
Built for anglers who regularly fish demanding environments, this is the kind of pack that protects your gear properly when conditions turn rough.
Who is this for?
Perfect for anglers fishing rivers, lakes, and demanding saltwater environments where waterproof protection is essential. Ideal for wet days in the Victorian High Country, the Snowy Mountains, or anywhere rain, river crossings, and harsh conditions are simply part of the fishing experience.
