Guys,
We all know what a pain life jackets are to wear. In a boat or tube you can't wear a waistcoat without it hetting in the way.  Deep wading is the same.

Nice for a tube or wading. It only becomes an issue if you fall in and smack your head, but otherwise a solid investment. Looking at getting two paddle boards for me and my missus and getting out more (with a rod of course) so will be ideal.

not sure i like the price but such is the cost of progress

Not sure for river fishing.

If you were stood in a decent flow, slip and are being dragged down stream, having to maintain composure and slip that over your head could be tricky.

You would also have to abandon anything you were holding.
