Ever since fishing vests first came on the angling scene back in the early 1900's, they have become an essential piece of equipment for fishing. Using this one piece of equipment can make a fishing trip a success. After all, it beats putting all of your fishing tackle in your pockets or trying to lug around a tackle box or bag.
Over the decades fishing vests have become lighter while being more compact and durable. The changes in development and manufacturing has also lead to the advent of fishing chest packs. Chest packs are a versatile option for anglers and fly anglers alike. There are many different styles to choose from and quite frankly it can get a bit confusing. Keeping in mind that like the rest of the population, fisherman constantly seek out bargains when searching for their fishing equipment. This is true with fishing vests and chest packs as well.
