Patagonia Stealth Switch Fishing Sling & Hip Pack 9L

The Patagonia Stealth Switch Pack 9L is one of the most versatile fishing packs around, designed to switch easily between a sling pack and a hip pack depending on how you like to fish.

The biggest advantage of the Stealth Switch Pack is its flexibility. Wear it as a sling for easy access to your gear while wading, then convert it to a hip pack when you prefer to keep the weight lower. The sling can be configured for either shoulder, making it comfortable for both left and right handed flyfishers.

The 9 litre capacity provides plenty of room for fly boxes, tippet, floatant, lunch and other essentials without the bulk of a larger backpack. Internal stretch compartments keep everything organised, while the integrated magnets are particularly handy for temporarily holding flies or tools when changing patterns.

The external water bottle pocket and landing net sleeve are useful additions for long days on the river. With plenty of attachment points for your most-used accessories, the Stealth Switch keeps everything accessible without constantly digging through the main compartment.

Who is this for?

Flyfishers looking for a versatile, comfortable pack for Australian and New Zealand trout fishing. Particularly well suited to river and stream fishing in the Victorian High Country and Snowy Mountains, where you want enough gear for a full day on the water without carrying a bulky backpack.
