It is such a great vest that I wear it even sometimes when I am bank fishing just because the storage is great on it. All of what he is saying is fact. I have had mine for over a year and love it.

The difference is like night and day from the cheaper generics. First, it has compartments to hold things, clips to hang things on. Second, it fits like a piece of clothes where the straps allow you to customize the fit. Third, and as it turns out a pretty big deal for me, it has a high rise in the back area leaving the portion of your back that comes in contact with the kayak seat . . . clear.

The increase in comfort is large. I feel as though I am not wearing anything. My arms and shoulders are completely open to working a rod and reel.

$60 versus $99? This is one where paying just a bit more gets you multiples of return.

Another vote for the NRS Chinook.Lot's of comfort...lots of pockets. I also use an inflatable like the one in my signature.
