Tackle Tuesday... Wychwood Epic Packsmart



Wychwood Epic Packsmart Review

I have never been a fan of enormous rucksacks because they only seem to encourage me to cram even more just-in-case items of fishing tackle into them, which are very rarely used or needed at all. So to make sure that I keep the weight down to a minimum I use a small rucksack and only take items that I really need.

The new Epic Packsmart from Wychwood is more like Doctor Who’s TARDIS than a rucksack. At first glance it looks a very compact rucksack come backpack, but when you open it out you quickly realise how much space there is and how accessible the various compartments really are. It truly becomes a whole new beast!

The Epic Packsmart consists of five separate compartments, which have clear plastic coverings so that you can clearly see what is in each one.

Because of the way it opens out it is easy to access all the compartments; there’s no rummaging around into the depths of a murky rucksack trying to find something that’s hiding in a corner.

In its open format you can unzip any of the compartments that you need to access to and store the rest under your bedchair.

There are numerous zips and HD clips and they all look very robust. So, as long as these are up to the job this is a superb piece of kit for any angler who doesn’t want, or need, to carry the kitchen sink.

The Verdict A very compact piece of luggage that is bigger than it looks and very well thought out.
