A convenient Fishing Vest
for the wading Angler

A fishing vest is used by a wading angler or by a person who likes to move from one spot to another.

A vest is very convenient for the fly fisher, because he is always moving around. A vest is basically a sleeveless shirt with many pockets to hold lure boxes and other small fishing accessories. Price is about $20-70+.

If you move around only occasionally, a cheap vest will do the job. If you are very active and move around a lot than a high quality model would be better.

Look for the following features:
1. A strong design with a polyester and cotton blend material. Popular colors are green and tan.
2. Velcro and zippers are better for closing and open the pockets.
3. Good ventilation and quick drying material.
4. Many small and some large pockets inside and outside.

It is important to organize the pockets, so that frequently needed items are in the front pockets.

The chest and backpack is an alternative to the vest. It consists of two small packs hanging over the shoulder held together by shoulder straps. This type distributes the weight more evenly. Price is about $45-80.
