Hi All,
Walter (formerly Reyes) calling. Firstly, let me start by saying I know nothing about these products or life jackets in general so I would love to hear your views.
I was going to add this to a previous thread regarding flotation devices / vests but thought I might as well start a new one. There are a few inflatable vests out there if you search, especially from the high-end fly fishing manufacturers. However, if you don't want to spend a fortune the video link below features the Airflo Wavehopper Inflatable Automatic Fly Vest from Tackle Discounts, it seems great value. The video is of the more expensive automatic model which retails for £125.99, but elsewhere on their site is the manual version which retails for £107.99, available for a couple of pounds less at Atkins Angling.
I am a bit of a clumsy so and so and it would seem a great idea to combine a fishing vest and flotation device! I wonder are they much heavier than a regular fishing vest, the video claims there is little or no added weight but who knows? If the link doesn't work just go to tacklediscounts.co.uk.
