I like the look of that. But is it waterproof?

I went for the Simms Guide pack with the roll top. Not the most convenient for getting to your stuff, but I wanted somewhere to put my camera gear on a trip which jnvolved a lot of wading and, not being good at that, I thought there was a good chance of complete immersion.

Some of the BASS boys seem to like the overboard stuff too, so that might be worth looking at, although I've not tried it.

Hello,

I use the first Simms Dry Backpack for many years and had no problems.
Also Ortlieb is a good choice, the model "Flight" is my first choice...

Have a look at these. Roll top, no so-called waterproof zips. If it's a bit more difficult to access that's a decent trade off if you really want something waterproof. And if they live up to their billing, extremely good value.
I've not yet used 20 litre one in anger - field trial St Brandon's Atoll end of March - hope I've made the right choice!!
