AN ANGLER'S REVIEW OF THE GUNNISON GUIDE PACK
As a full time guide here in Colorado, the best path to success on the water is in preparation. The Gunnison Guide Pack allows me to be ready for all situations on South Platte River and beyond. John Land LeCoq and everyone at Fishpond hit a serious home run with the design details, this pack has all the features concerning storage, size, and accessory placement that an angler could need. From long days in remote stretches to quick trips down the road I can bring everything I need to be prepared for what the day might bring. It carries the load very well and I recommend the new Gunnison Guide Pack for all anglers.
Here is a quick look at what I bring along on the water for a typical day out.
