Description

i know. another field bag type thing. at least they all look a bit different.
this one's got water bugs on it!!! the design on the front flap is a damselfly nymph (to see the original design and read a sort of explanation of damselfly nymphs, see this: [link]), and the design on the side is a backswimmer (to see the original design and stuff, see this: [link]). water bugs are wonderful creatures, and they are very good for getting a quick but accurate indication of stream health.

this is my standard field bag design, having all the features thereof, but is about 80% the size of the standard ones. it's 8oz veg tan leather, has internal pockets, a removable strap so it can go over a shoulder or on a belt, an external pen holder, and a d-ring for hanging things off of. oh! and it's all hand-stitched. no lockstitchers here. see (some) detail pics here: [link]

this one's not for sale. you probably don't want one with bugs all over anyway. if you would like a field bag of your own, please comment or note! i'd be thrilled!

Oh, I would LOVE this!  I am all over the pockets for pens, "write in the rain" notebooks, cameras and batteries, and...well, spots for sample tubes, if you must know.
