In this episode of Waypoints, the focus is on technical gear and packing solutions for the traveling angler, with special guest Ben Kurtz, co-owner and President of Fishpond USA. Fishpond is a leading manufacturer of high-quality, packs, sustainable fly fishing travel solutions, and accessories designed for anglers who thrive on adventure, exploration, and the next great
destination. The conversation delves into the evolution of luggage and gear construction, the most important features to consider when designing travel gear, how the company works hard to cater to the needs of traveling fly fishers, how new products are actually tested, and at what point a product is ready to bring to market.
