The Simms Dry Creek Z Backpack in Olive is the premium waterproof backpack designed for fly fishers who need complete gear protection and high capacity in a single product. Made by Simms Fishing Products – America's benchmark brand in professional fly fishing – the Dry Creek Z Backpack brings the waterproof technology of the Dry Creek line to backpack format, with the addition of a waterproof zip for quick, secure access to the contents.
The Z denotes a professional-grade waterproof zip – a technical feature that sets this backpack apart from roll-top models, offering direct, immediate access without unrolling the closure.

FAQ
▸ What sets the Dry Creek Z Backpack apart from the Dry Creek Rolltop Backpack?
The main difference is the closure system: the Dry Creek Z Backpack uses a professional-grade waterproof zip, while the Rolltop Backpack uses the roll-top system. The zip provides faster, more direct access to the contents without the need to unroll the closure. Both offer the same total waterproofing of the Simms Dry Creek line.
▸ Is the Dry Creek Z Backpack completely waterproof?
Yes. The Simms Dry Creek Z Backpack is built with the waterproof material of the Dry Creek line, guaranteeing complete protection of the contents even in partial submersion during wading. The waterproof zip maintains the watertight seal even when the backpack is completely wet.
▸ What can I carry in the Dry Creek Z Backpack?
Thanks to its high capacity, the Simms Dry Creek Z Backpack is ideal for spare clothing, thermal layers, rain jackets, spare shoes, food and water for the day, fly boxes, and technical gear not immediately needed. The perfect companion for long days on the river or fishing travel.
▸ How do you maintain the waterproof zip long-term?
Lubricate the zip regularly with products specifically designed for technical zips (solid wax or lubricant spray) to preserve waterproofing over time. After each outing, rinse with fresh water and never pull with excessive force. Always follow the product's care instructions.
▸ Can it be used as carry-on luggage on flights for fishing trips?
Yes. The Simms Dry Creek Z Backpack is also designed for travel and can be used as carry-on luggage within airline-permitted dimensions – always verify your carrier's specific weight and size restrictions. Its waterproof construction reliably protects delicate technical equipment.
