Could anybody give some recommendations on PFD's for cold water fishing.

I have
a small boat that I plan on using on a big lake. I'll hug the shoreline

but the
water is quite cold. The alarming thing is that you can drown in cold

water in
a tipped boat being only a few feet from shore. There can be a reflex

action by
the body on entering cold water to gasp for air and in the process take

in a
lot of water. I want to upgrade my pfd. Thanks kindly



He may be a troll, but it is a great question! I use a float coat when the
water is cold and the weather is coolish.
