I have a maxcatch vest with the backpack from amazon for $100. I would say it is actually fairly decent quality. Reviews on amazon are very good considering the price, the only annoyance I've found with it is one of the shoulder straps working its way loose as you walk. I threw a little piece of tape over it and it holds fine now. I am about 5'10" 185 and I have it cinched down all the way but I don't like it flopping around.

I also have a simmons hip belt. Depending on the length of the trip I swap between the two. I wanted to try a vest and am just getting in to fly fishing so couldn't justify $300 on a high end vest. I think the maxcatch is a good start if you are just getting going.
