Ok, first time poster here. I'm trying to get in to yak fishing and have settled on the Chinook by NRS. My concern is that the xxl is only listed up to a 50 inch chest, and I'm more of a 54-56. Who might carry this in DFW so I can try it on, or does anyone have any experience with this pfd?

I use a Chinook and really enjoy it. It is very comfortable. Hope you can find the size you are looking for.

We do have the NRS Chinook in XXL if you want to try it on. We also have a Kokotat Bahia Tour PFD in XXL which fits 50-58". All of our PFD's are 10% off in the store right now.

Thanks every one! My goal was to get to Mountain sport this past week end, but the wife and kids had other ideas. I'll try again this weekend!
