As the aleve wears off from my last trip, I have come to the realization that a loaded vest is not the best set up for my back.
Does anyone have any recommendations, I am not into the chest pack since I feel like too much in front of me is hard to handle. What about a fanny/"lumbar" pack with a lanyard. Also, I see rosenbauer in the latest orvis book is pushing the "sling pack"
My criteria is something that holds a good amount of gear (including the essential cigars, drinks and sandwich), is convenient, does not cost a ton and most importantly, is friendsly to my back.
