Fishing Life Jackets

A life vest or jacket is an essential piece of safety gear to wear whenever you go out on the water. A life jacket is a type of personal flotation device (PFD) that is designed for one purpose – to keep a wearer afloat. However, in the case of recreational use, it also needs to be comfortable to wear without restricting your mobility, and have the features dictated by your activity. A typical fishing life jacket is a two-in-one product – a PFD that keeps you safe in an emergency situation and a storage solution for your fishing tools, tackle boxes, lures, etc.

Whatever type of fishing you are into, here you'll find the right PFD with the features you need. We carry models with different-sized, strategically-placed pockets that make it easy to store and organize tippet, pliers, leaders, and other essentials that you want to keep within easy reach. Many of the fishing life jackets have D-rings and loops for attaching a knife, flashlight, whistle, etc., freeing up pocket space for other gear. In hotter climates, a life vest with mesh panels for added air ventilation is a good choice, especially if you're planning to spend long hours on the water. Foam backs are designed to accommodate a variety of back seat options.
