William Joseph Fishing Gear

William Joseph Coastal Vest
We have
all heard the old adage "You've got to have the right tool for the
job". Well the Coastal is the Mac Daddy of all fishing tools. The Coastal
offers enough real estate to carry all that you need, and then some. The
backpack can easily carry a 100oz hydration bladder, snacks, a light rain
jacket, and a few other small items that you might need. The two front
workstations can easily handle the rest of your supplies. One of the
workstations has our tippet control system, which will hold up to five spools of
tippet. In the front you've got enough pockets for nippers, hemos, sunglasses, a
camera, and certainly loads of space for even the big fly boxes! However, even
with all of that, we still have to say that the real feature of this pack is how
is carries. It's got a lower center of gravity which distributes the weight over
the torso, not the shoulders and back. So at the end of a long casting day the
only thing that is tired are the fish (of being caught, that is).

William
Joseph Chest Gear Bag
So
you've seen chest packs before, eh? Wonder if it was the same 'brick on a strap'
that motivated us to make our own version... Well, anyway, we thought it could
be done better, so we started by adding a feature that had never been tried
before - Comfort. The rest just sort of fell into place. There is literally a
spot for everything except line snags): pliers, hemos, hydration, tippet, you
name it - As with all of our products, we realize that people come in all shapes
and sizes, so the gear bag chest comes with our adjustable harness system,
guaranteeing you a perfect fit. So call your chiropractor and tell him you won't
be needing his services anymore - you just bought a William-Joseph.
Features:
- Hydration
capabilities (bladder sold separately, the 35oz fits best)
- Aerospace
breathable backing

William
Joseph Flats Lite Chest Bag
In
a recent survey we found that four out of five fish preferred biting real bugs
over those with hooks in them. Which brought us to the conclusion that a good
presentation can certainly help when wooing the "big ones." That's
where the Flats Light comes in handy - it will let you take all the tools of the
trade. Just as importantly, however, it will show that you know what not to
take. And what about when the water gets just a bit deeper? No worries, this bad
boy raises the bar by splitting in half, allowing you to carry it on any
extremity you choose. So if we lay it on the line (so to speak) the Flats Light
gives you a breathable fanny pack, a comfortable, multi-pocketed chest pack, and
a handy little bottle to carry any liquid you see fit.
Features:
- Modular
pack system (organize it anyway you want)
- Easy
access workstation
- Multiple
tool holders
- Modular
22oz water bottle system
- Detachable
chest pack
- New
Tippet Control System (TCS)

William
Joseph BFD Travel Bag
Don’t
roll your eyes at us, this is not just another travel bag. This is one Bad Ass
piece of equipment. Were talking the kind of bag Brando would've chosen if he
fly fished, the kind of bag Peter Fonda would've towed behind his bike in Easy
Rider. Yeah, thats right, a Hell on wheels kind of bag. As a matter of fact we
will put this bag in the ring any day with those other Sissy, French speaking
travel bags. Its 11,000 cubic inches of testosterone, all wrapped in enough
webbing and zippers to make even veteran Airline Baggage handlers blush. And it
delivers the goods (literally) with features such as a zip out bottom that will
hold over six rods, a main storage compartment that you could live in and two
smaller compartments for your wife and mother-in-law as well. But as we all
know, all the size in the world means nothing without finesse and agility, so we
added a pair of over sized urethane wheels and a couple of gnarly skid plates to
protect the bottom. So bring it on
Features:
- Separate
rod tube compartment on the bottom
- Cavernous
main compartment
- Handy
end and side pockets
- Hefty
rolling hardware
- Overbuilt
zippers, webbing, and handles
- Weighs
in at 12lbs
