From a half-day on a local creek to a five-day backcountry wilderness trip — the right pack keeps your flies, tools, and essentials exactly where you need them, and out of your way when you don't.
Pocket-Heavy · Quick Access · Classic Fit
A vest puts every essential in reach without burdening your back. Multiple chest and front pockets keep flies, tippet, leaders, and tools organized for a full day's fishing.
16 pockets of intelligent organization, built with recycled materials — because the rivers we fish deserve our respect. A Canadian favourite from the Bow to the Restigouche.
Open mesh construction keeps you cool on warm prairie rivers and summer BC trips. Generous D-rings for tools, zip-off sleeves, and a wide back pocket for a rain shell.
Cut short to clear the water while wading chest-deep. A wader-friendly vest with 17 pockets, chest-level access, and Simms' signature tippet holder built right in.
Outstanding value for new anglers and weekend warriors. DWR-treated shell sheds light rain, neoprene-lined pockets protect fly boxes, and the D-rings handle all your accessories.
Lightweight · Minimalist · Wading-Friendly
When you want all the organization of a vest in a lighter, sleeker footprint — a chest pack is the answer. Ideal for anglers who move fast and fish light.
A guide-grade chest pack built from recycled polyester. Dedicated tippet dock, rod holder, and a large main compartment that swallows a full day's worth of boxes and gear.
Wear it as a chest pack on the water, convert to a hip pack on the hike in. Simms' Tributary adapts to every part of your fishing day with zero fuss and zero tool required.
Barely-there, all-day comfortable. The Teo is designed for the ultra-light angler who wants modular access — add or remove MOLLE pouches as needed for each session.
Low Profile · Waist-Mount · Stable Carry
Hip packs stay put in current, clear your chest for comfortable wading, and carry an impressive amount of gear for their footprint. A favourite for long days covering big water.
A roomy 4L main compartment, tippet dock on the front, and a front organizer pouch for forceps, nippers, and indicators. Padded belt doesn't budge in heavy current.
Slimline crossbody pack that rides at the hip or across the torso. Built for half-day outings when you want gear close but keep things lean. The recycled shell is tough-as-nails.
Waterproof roll-top liner keeps your electronics, lunch, and spare layer bone-dry. Clips directly onto Simms wader belts or wears standalone — genius for long days and changing weather.
Wilderness Ready · Wader Storage · Rod Carry
Access backcountry lakes, remote rivers, and alpine streams that no vehicle can reach. These packs carry everything — and double as a base camp when you arrive.
Built entirely from recycled materials, the Thunderhead carries 30L of gear with an external rod carrier, chest pass-through, and a removable tippet dock. The day-trip backpack for Canadian backcountry fishing.
A multi-day wilderness pack with a dedicated wader compartment, separate boot pocket, and a large main body for everything else. The pack to build your whole backcountry trip around.
A fully waterproof welded-seam pack for BC coastal rivers and rainy mountain days. Roll-top closure, welded seams, and a chest harness that converts from backpack to hip pack on the water.
An all-mountain 35L with a fly-box viewing window so you can find patterns without opening your pack, padded hip belt pockets for on-trail snacks, and a single-hand-access top pocket for essentials.

DWR coatings, welded seams, and waterproof zippers keep your gear dry when weather turns — or when you wade just a bit too deep.
Every pack here is designed by or in collaboration with serious fly anglers — tippet docks, fly box windows, and rod holders are standard, not afterthoughts.
From prairie rivers to BC coastal wilderness — our selection handles the full range of Canadian conditions, terrain, and seasons.
