Best PFD - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

RockyRaab · 07-02-2012, 02:04 PM

I only fish freshwater, so perhaps my needs differ. I found an unused but pre-owned manual inflation PFD on eBay and love it. No pockets for a radio or anything, but I don't need that.

I can heartily recommend the manual inflation type; they are lightweight, not bulky, are completely open in back, and won't go off unless and until you want them to. You DO have to be conscious to activate them, please note.
