Good price on this haul bag-but is there any reason to avoid it? Any opinions on getting first haul bag for one-two day aid climbs?


thanks!

Aside from the fact that it's only a haul bag by name, it's great, apparently very popular as a crag pack with their athletes. It's basically a knockoff bd creek.

Have you seen it in person? Way better for actual hauling. The BD creek is what I would call haul bag inspired, but this is actually meant to drag up the side of a cliff. Not as robust as the the Met haul bags or the real BD haul bags for sure, but still will get the job done for smaller sized adventures..... and a good price.

Fish didn't even reply to my emails. Runout customs ended up getting my business. Was expensive but the Gucci of haul bags has been serving me marvelously and is by far the most comfortable to carry haul bag on the planet. 

But yes, Fish makes a great product if you can talk them into actually selling you something. 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
