Patagonia Waders

2012 Slab of the Year Winners

The Chum Nation has spoken.  We tallied.  And here's how it shook out:

First Place Winner:

John "Montana" Bartlett's carping dedication reaches the highest honor.

Second Place Winner:

Derek Olthuis' Bull Trout impresses many a kypeoisseur.

Third Place Winner:

Dave Hamel's Lahontan is a prime example of what this revered contest is all about.

Review: Patagonia Stormfront Pack

Hatch Magazine reviews the Patagonia Stormfront Pack.

While there are a plethora of other "waterproof" offerings in the market, what differentiates the Stormfront from all the rest is its waterproof/corrosion proof main zipper. Most of the other "waterproof" offerings out there feature reverse coil polyurethane zippers which are not 100% waterproof. Short of a roll top dry bag style pack, Patagonia's Stormfront is THE most waterproof offering on the market.
