After years of wearing a heavy fishing vest, my
sore neck and shoulders have driven me to come up with a better idea for
carrying my fishing tackle. The Fischer’s Fishers Master Guide Belt
Vest™ allows the weight of my vest and contents to be easily carried on
my hips and offers instant access to all my fishing materials!
The Master Guide Belt Vest is constructed from
1000 denier Cordura fabric, 2" and 3" polypropylene webbing, tough coil
zippers and heavy snap release buckles. In the front of the belt are two
tippet pockets with interior dividers and hook and loop pocket covers
that carry six tippet spools. The tippets pass under even tension
through holes in the top of the pockets for instant leader repairs. My
fellow guides report saving a half hour a day of fishing downtime
because their tippet material is right where it needs to be and does not
tangle! The two zippered fly box pockets each hold a medium sized fly
box and have hook and loop secured interior pockets for extra leaders
and strike indicator materials. The right fly box pocket has a special
interior divider designed to also hold a ‘Tach-It™ magnetic fly box.
Left and right side pockets carry lead sinkers, fly floatant, fly
dessicant, leader sink, tape measure, etc. A removable wool patch is
included on the left pocket cover to hold flies. Forceps attach to a
D-ring at the back of the side pocket for quick access and can be held
from loss by a cable retractor reel. A materials clipper
has its own pocket in the front of the vest and is instantly usable! It
can’t be lost because it can be held on with a Simms coil style
retractor. A rear zippered pocket holds objects like a fishing license,
maps, etc. and has a hook and loop secured key pocket.
The Master Guide Belt Vest is made in even waist
sizes from 32" to 40" but is adjustable to accommodate the bulk of extra
clothing or waders in each size. When the belt vest is fit properly, it
will slide upwards under the armpits and stay there while wading deeply.
The belt vest can easily be worn under most rain gear. The vest will not
get wet and heavy as Cordura fabric does not absorb much water and dries
very quickly! The wide webbing belt gives some back support.
Stock color is khaki. Options include drink holders, net holsters and a removable
back storage pouch. Custom sizes, colors and left handed vests are
available by special order.
