Waist type inflatable
I also use a belt type inflatable with my waders or plain shorts. It allows a lot of mobility. I do keep a full type three in the front hatch just in the case that you have an extended stay in the water. I also suggest practicing in a pool. I know I can get back on fairly quick and I am a pretty confident swimmer. If you practice in a pool, the regular pfd may be the type of bouyancy you need to get up onto your yak again. I say try them all out. Living another day to fish is priceless.

Thanks for all the input. Looks like i'll be using the co2 pfd inside the harbors, anything outside the harbor i will use the buoyant one. Both will stored onboard. Thanks again.

Dont just store them on board wear one. A stowed PFD does you no good if your get separated from your kayak or are knocked unconscious in the surf. |
