PFD followup
 
I recall a recent post asking about PFDs for waders. You might want to take
a look at PFDs for kayakers. They are high quality and designed for max
lifesaving flotation, yet still be unobtrusive to the upper chest and arms,
kayakers needing max arm freedom at all times.

they must have changed a heck of a lot then last time I wore one it changed
me in to Mr Bibendum (the Michelin man)
http://www.decathlon.co.uk/EN/ck500-...ange-33502951/ its
more of a question of how it restricts the underlying clothing . I'm not a
big fan of permantly inflated PFD's the self inflating seem more practical
for fly fishing more a dinghy sailors sort of thing

manual rather than auto activation.)
