Pack, speaking for myself and people I fish with, being a FLY FISHER, we try to down size. Vest, fanny pack, sling, whatever...we put what we need in there.
We can't imagine walking up and down a river with a stringer. Sure a creel would be an option, but again, down sizing.
I know several spin fishers that feel the same, so not just a FF thing.
When we go out on Stillwater, we are generally out there for hours. Hanging a fish off the side on a stringer or in a basket, just doesn't work for me. The longer a fish lays in the water dead or alive, the more it looses flavor to me.
