Decked out for a day of wading, the DAKINE Mission Fish 12L Waist Pack is our "fishing fanny" for fun days in the surf or river. The waist pack features a drop-down workstation for easy rigging that slides back to our lumbar to stay out of our way when we're actively fishing. We like that waist-level work area—as well as the external spool holder for our lines or tippets, the multiple tackle and fly box pockets, water bottle holders, multiple attachment points for our retractor and accessories, and holsters for pliers and other tools. The Mission keeps our gear dry and well organized, so we can spend less time digging around for our gear and more time fishing.
