Video Transcript

"Hi I'm Steve Oxley from the Denver Angler and I'm going to show you some things to look for when you're buying a fly fishing vest. We'll start out with a conventional vest, basic pockets on it. Has a built in retractor right here and a place to put your flies when you're done. But make sure that you buy it large enough so if you need to do layering that it will fit over the layering. And then we also have the new high tech vests that are coming out. These are one size fits all so they can be adjusted. They have built in fly patches like this and all kinds of loops and attachments and big pouches on the back. They virtually have taken over for what we call the conventional fly vest. So when buying a fly fishing vest, whether it's a conventional vest or one of the new high tech vets, make sure that it has enough pockets for you to carry the stuff that you need to carry when you're out fishing. And that's how you buy a fly fishing vest."
