Vest Recomendation


Recommended Posts

Hello;

I am shopping for a new vest. My last was a higher end fishpond pack style that lasted about 5 years. Zippers blew and I no longer like all the tag ends were line always catches on. I am leaning towards a Simms G3 any opinions? Maybe other models?

Thanks in advance

I'm kind of impartial to the William Joseph stuff myself.

 

Had and Equinox chest pack that I loved, and now I have upgraded to the Exodus. You can separate the vest from the back pack when you don't need it, and the back back has PLENTY of room in it for a jacket, lunch, gloves, spare fly boxes, water bladder, etc.

I have a few vests that I really like including on old Orvis and a two year old Gillie and a few others, although I usually carry a Hardy bag. But won't suggest on to you. What you should do is take your fly boxes to a local fly shop shop, try on a couple of vests loaded with your stuff and make your decision based on that.

Why doesn't William Joseph show any dealers in Canada? Do they not deal here in Canada? Although I wouldn't mind fishing in Montana, its quite the drive just to pick up a vest.

I picked up my Exodus at Fish Tales. It was their last one though.

 

You can also get their stuff at Wholesale (buddy got his there) and The Fishin Hole.
