I think there's 2 aspects of hiking it, 1 where the destination is a long walk, and the other where you walk a long stretch while fishing.
If its the first, I find a backpack helpful. Ill put my korkers, and plug bag w/ some snack bars and xtra bottle of wader in it. Unpack and fish normal (wader belt and acces.). I find fishing w/ the backpack on uncomfortable.
Otherwise I pack light when fishing a long stretch. Ill stick some rice KRISPY treats (waterproof) in the plugbag side pockets, a redbull in the other and a water bottle attached to my wader belt via caribiner. Smokes are in my waders, but I got an Otter Box this year, to keep in my bag.
I also slim down what plugs I carry by only putting 1 plug in each slot. That helps alot.
