Steelhead

Purpose: Fishing Chest Rig for Wading and River Access

Built for long days on the water, the Steelhead is a purpose-driven fishing chest pack that keeps your gear high, tight, and ready. Whether you're fly fishing fast-moving rivers, casting from shore, or exploring remote drainages, the Steelhead keeps your essential tools organized and within reach. No need to drop your main pack or dig through layers.

Three work zones make it easy to customize for your activity. The front panel includes two reinforced stretch pockets with dummy cord tabs, a tapered center sleeve for tools like hemostats, and internal routing for retractors. Inside, a gusseted zippered mesh pocket and reinforced internal dividers keep gear secure and accessible.

Behind it all is a concealed Quick Draw compartment, sized for most pistols and accessible from either side. Lined with Velcro and outfitted with paracord loops, this pocket can double as a compact workstation when you’re not carrying a sidearm.

The Steelhead is built for full-day wear with an adjustable spacer mesh harness, tool attachment points, and a compact profile. Whether worn standalone or under your Kifaru pack, it’s made to move with you.
