I've been looking at these two for day/overnight hikes.

Osprey Atmos 35 Pack

Korker Guide Boots

Boots would be for for spring/summer use. They have interchangeable soles. I like the idea of having a boot that drains, rather than bringing/wearing water shoes.

Any opinions?

The pack is nice. I ended up with the Osprey Kestrel 32, a similar pack but I preferred its suspension system to the Atmos.

No idea on the boots, sorry, but they seem very specialized for fly fishing, no?

According to the salesperson, they are good for hiking and fishing, with the change of a sole. Some online reviews state they are good and confortable, but most where from ppl using for fishing. Haven't read much about their hiking abilities.
