Fishpond Summit Sling 2.0 Fly Fishing Pack

Evolution of the Ultimate Technical Fly Fishing Sling

How do you improve upon perfection? You redesign it from the water up. The Fishpond Summit Sling 2.0 takes the crown as the most comfortable, feature-rich, and design-forward technical sling pack on the market today. Engineered for the serious angler who demands effortless mobility without leaving critical gear behind, the Summit 2.0 balances generous storage with an ergonomic fit that stays completely out of your way while casting.

With three expansive main compartments and a network of exterior attachment points, this pack ensures that your fly boxes, extra layers, and tippet spools are securely stored yet instantly accessible with a quick slide around your torso.

Unmatched Organization & On-the-Water Workstation

The centerpiece of the Summit Sling 2.0 is Fishpond’s patented, signature molded drop-down fly and cargo bench. Zipping open to create a rigid, stable shelf, it acts as a mobile workstation for rigging up rigs on the fly. The outside face features a hook-and-loop velcro field, allowing you to slap on a fly patch for quick drying or pattern storage.

Inside and out, a total of 7 strategic pockets keep your gear perfectly categorized, eliminating the frustration of digging for buried tools when the hatch is on.

Built to Withstand the Elements

Constructed with legendary Fishpond durability, this sling pack is built for the rigors of backcountry hikes and rushing river currents. Heavy-duty coated YKK water-resistant zippers keep rain, spray, and unexpected splashes away from your gear.

For maximum utility, the exterior boasts premium Hypalon® tool attachment points for retractors, floatant holders, and forceps. When it's time to land a trophy, the integrated rear net sleeve keeps your landing net securely stowed against your back panel, ready for a quick, blind-reach draw.
