MRO Team Review:

This sling pack is new for 2016 and I just picked one up a month ago.  So far I've got to say this is looking like it's going to be one of my favorite sling packs for fly fishing.  The storage is well organized and the fold out work bench is great.   One of my favorite features is how you can adjust the straps so that it rides higher on your back.  Since I'm rather short this helps keep the sling pack out of the water and my gear dry when wading through deep water as opposed to some others I've used.
