Vest of pockets
Fishing vests are becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to the fishing bag. It is a case of wearing the weight instead of carrying it. The vest is a mass of pockets, including a big
one at the back for carrying the catch. One angler who is a convert to the fishing vest recalls being almost drowned once when his fishing bag went under in fast water and nearly dragged him with it.
