What makes this vest unique is what it doesn't have. The open polyester mesh body lets air circulate freely around you, so you'll stay cool, dry and comfortable when the weather heats up. Plus, it has eight pockets, two large lower front zip-closed pockets, a rod holder, utility D-ring and a back storage pocket so you can still carry all the fly tackle you'll need for any situation.
Sizes: S-2XL.
Color: Flax.
Columbia provides quality merchandise. Light in weight, numersous pockets, made of all weather fast drying material and good looking. Should please all descriminating fly fishing enthusiasts.
This vest is very light and comfortable. It has more than enough pockets to hold a days tackle. If you are looking for a summer vest, or a fulltime vest as I use it, this is a great buy. The coil retractors are useful, however, the design of the clasps should be changed. The wire clasp gets caught in the mesh of the vest which makes it difficult to extend. However, not a big enough deal to keep me from buying the vest.
I purchased the Columbia® Cool Creek Mesh Fly-Fishing and it made a world of difference now when I go fishing weither it is wade or just fishing off the boat I have what I need right their .
