The 6 Best Angler’s vest

Table of Contents:

Fishing is not only a popular sport to catch a fish, but also thrills with the effect of relaxation. Because in the great outdoors the stressful working day can be quickly forgotten and you get “Back to the roots” again. However, if you want to make a really big catch, you will need suitable equipment for fishing. This is exactly where the angler’s vest comes into its own, because it can be used to store the small parts needed. So the angler has both hands free during the fishing and nevertheless everything immediately to the hand if it is needed. But not every angler’s vest is suitable for every angler. For optimal fishing pleasure, you should therefore consider a few points before buying a fishing vest.

The storage space is the most important reason for buying a fishing vest, which is why you should pay particular attention to the attached pockets. The bags contain tools, bait, knives, spare cords and personal items such as a mobile phone. The angler’s vest should be equipped with the required number of pockets depending on your needs. In addition to the number of pockets, the pocket size and the closure of these are also important purchase criteria. For example, if the baits are to be accommodated in a larger box, then at least one suitably large bag must also be available. For sensitive utensils such as a mobile phone, a fishing vest with a lockable inner pocket is recommended so that it does not get lost when a fish is pulled out in the reed. For example, the Mil-Tec hunting and fishing vest comes with 14 pockets, whereby there is also a large back pocket with side access and a secure inside pocket. The MFH men’s outdoor vest in the heavy version even has 4 inside pockets, but the pockets all have only one vertical and no horizontal mesh.

An angler’s vest belongs to the so-called functional vests – they serve not so much the look as the function. The vest should not only be practical from the storage space, but also comfortable to handle. If a fish has just bitten, then it must go fast in many cases. In addition, you usually only have one hand at your disposal – the closure of the bags should therefore not be too cumbersome to open and it should be just as easy to close again. The weight of the fishing vest also plays an important role when it comes to handling. The hunting and fishing vest from Noorsk, for example, is extremely light as it is made of Taslon nylon. The attached pockets are provided with zipper or velcro, so that one can fill these accordingly. The MFH Men’s Outdoor Vest in the heavy version, on the other hand, has a lot more weight, but it also warms in the colder months of the year.

Last but not least, when buying a fishing vest, you should pay attention to its workmanship. Since anglers are often heavily packed and sometimes have to fight their way through heavy bushes, the vest should be as robust as possible. Also, seams should not open immediately when a larger reel is put into a pocket – a fishing vest should adapt to the varied requirements. If you want to buy a particularly high-quality fishing vest, the men’s leather vest from MDM is a good alternative. This is made of lamb nappa leather and is therefore very durable. From the optical point of view it is not only suitable for fishing, but can also be worn during other leisure activities. A lighter and much cheaper fishing vest, for example, is the men’s vest from Zicac, which is very well processed and breathable due to the integrated mesh parts. Ultimately, it is always your own needs that decide which angler’s vest meets your requirements.
