The Drake lanyard is lightweight and comfortable to wear. The clear beading gives a nice visual appeal, and the paracord adds a touch of color. The padded neck and quick release are reliable. I use it daily for fly fishing and appreciate the organization of the tippet spool and fly rolls.
Phil Springer –
Great for anglers who want a lighter setup. The design is clean and functional. The floatant caddy holds my floatants well, and the foam fly rolls are easy to use. A bit more delicate than the standard model, but worth it for the weight reduction.

I’ve switched from the Guide model to the Drake and noticed a significant difference in comfort and weight. The trout print chamois is a nice detail. All the features are present and work as expected. Perfect for long days on the water.
