I'd look in camping shops and get a decent one, at a decent price thats quite comfy on your back. You will get better value for money that way http://www.cemexangling.co.uk/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Using the JRC 70Litre one myself this year, the back support on this one is excellent - v.comfortable....see picture 2 on this link: http://www.englandangling.co.uk/displayProduct.asp?prodCode=70RUCK

ive found the best 1 ive used is the 30litre tfg rucksack and it can be used as a 55litre just have to adjust the straps.

ive had a fox royal 70 litre rucksack for a while now and i can safely say its the best rucksack iv ever had it has a built in back support loads of pockets. another good extra it has is a built in rain cover.

Why not try an Army "bergan" from a surplus shop? Get one with side pouches and you can carry 120ltr of kit if you need to. Also the side pouches can be used as a daysack/stalking bag with a separate yoke/harness. These are indestructible have aframe and WILL NOT do your back in! They come in british DPM if you're into all that camo stuff. Should look to pay around £60 - £80 for a good second hand one. http://www.cemexangling.co.uk/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Think I might go and order a Armo rucksack!
Was wondering if there are any differences between the Aqua one and the Trakker one????
