CALL IN THE CHINOOK FOR YOUR PFD NEEDS Some lifejackets and personal flotation devices (PFDs) can be seen as a ‘necessary evil’, which is understandable since safety on the water is paramount. But NRS believes they can be functional, practical and comfortable too, hence its Chinook PFD. With all the organisation and attachment points needed for your fishing accessories, the NRS Chinook Fishing PFD is the world’s best-selling life jacket for kayak anglers. Not only is it designed to make you more effective on the water, US manufacturer Northwest River Supplies, or NRS as it is better known, says the comfort of the Chinook is unrivalled. From a pure safety factor, the Chinook itself is a Type III, medium profile life jacket delivering 16lb of flotation and carries the US Coast Guard Certification through Underwriters Laboratories (UL). But it is the product’s PlushFit foam and a high-back design that combine to create an extremely comfortable vest for any type of raft or kayak seat. There’s also a mesh lower-back, which offers added ventilation on warm days. In addition, the zippered front entry and six adjustment points offer a fully customised fit. FEATURE-FILLED FLOTATION Often the form and functionality would end there with many other makes but NRS has been designing and making water-based gear and apparel for all forms of sports and pastimes since 1972, which is why it is trusted by retailers and outfitters around the world to supply the best equipment 32 www.tackletradeworld.com possible. So it is with the Chinook PFD, which has so many useful extras for the angler who chooses to do their fishing from a kayak. Much of this comes from the fact that its Moscow, Idaho headquarters houses around 100 employees who not only own the company between them but are also avid kayak anglers, fly fishermen, stand up paddlers and whitewater aficionados. For example, the Chinook boasts two large, zippered pockets, sized specifically for tackle boxes, with internal organisation, plus two smaller accessory pockets with hookand-loop closures. A fifth, tool holder pocket offers quick access to pliers, line cutters or other fishing gadgets and accessories. As if that’s not enough, the PFD also features a rod holder, strobe attachment point, reflective accents and even a knife lash tab. NRS www.nrs.com
