Is this the best angling PFD on the market?
A highback fishing PFD that can stow everything but the kitchen sink and still stay comfortable and light on the water. The cutaway back panel works with taller seats, and the slimline front lets you move freely. Choose how and where you want to stow your gear, with everything close to hand. The Kola Angler’s clamshell pockets fold open for a clear view of the compartments within. There is a sturdy stow point for pliers or braid scissors and multiple webbing and snap D-ring attachment points, including a landing net hanger at the back. Stay safe and be seen with SOLAS hi-vis panels and a clip point on the shoulders for your strobe.
