I was reading an Australian fishing mag. last night and it had a story about rock fishing and a young lad who went out with friends and tragically lost his life.
He fell in and an undertow pulled him under.
I have been wearing a p.f.d. for some years now and it’s an angler's type (50 newtons)with loads of pockets and some other nice features...
I was wondering if anglers out there know that these are available at very reasonable prices and do not inhibit your fishing in any way...actually I find it very useful for all sorts of tackle and small head torch and I tuck my lure/fly box into it........
It’s a "plastimo"
Only about 50 euro i think!
Not a lot of money for a good bit of safety kit!
Add a waterproof torch (mini L.E.D.)and a whistle and your good ta go!
