The standard for kayak PFD

Nearly everyone in kayak tournament trails wears an NRS Chinook and for good reason. They are incredibly comfortable, reliable, tons of pockets and storage and a worth-while investment. Attachments for the NRS knife, power pole or trolling motor remote, line snips, phone tether, etc. Organizing gear is essential in kayak angling and this PFD makes it easy

Nice fit

Solid, trusting fit. I'm 5'9" 195lbs. Purchased L/XL. Pockets are useful as well. Highly recommend. Not bulky for storage on a yak.

Chinook

I previously owned a less expensive life jacket bought from a chain locally. I was never a fan but out of convenience, I picked it up. This Chinook fits well, has wide teeth zippers, plenty of pockets and is very adjustable. 250 lbs and being an XXL, sometimes it hard to get a good fit. This life jacket checks all the boxes. Would recommend.
