Crank 1 2 3 Safety First Mustang Survival
Lil’ Legends PFD (1) $58.37 TO $68.45
www.mustangsurvival.com
Nothing turns a young angler away from fishing faster than spending a day on the water sweating and itching in an uncom- fortable PFD. Mustang Survival has rede- signed its Lil’ Legends child and youth life vests to be more comfortable and more attractive. By adding mobility panels and thermal channels, the Lil’ Legends is cooler and more comfortable than its predeces- sor. New materials and a range of attrac- tive colors make the PFD better looking, too. With these improvements, lil’ anglers can concentrate on fighting fish instead of fighting their PFD.
Kokatat
SeaO2 (2) $230.00
www.kokatat.com
For the past few years, kayak anglers have debated the advantages of inflatable versus foam life vests. Kokatat’s new SeaO2 PFD is the best of both worlds. The PFD has seven-and-a-half pounds of foam flota- tion—enough to keep any angler afloat in an emergency. It then adds another 15 pounds of flotation with an inflatable membrane. The membrane can be filled with a pull- cord activated CO2 canister or blown up manually through a plastic tube. The SeaO2 has an open back to accommodate high seat backs popular on sit-on-top kayaks. It also has a large, expandable mesh pocket and a smaller VHF pocket on the front. The debate is over; SeaO2 offers the best of a foam and inflatable PFD.
58…KAYAK ANGLER Gerber
River Shorty (3) $40.00
www.gerbergear.com
No kayak angler should be caught without a safety knife on his PFD. Gerber’s River Shorty features a three-inch stainless steel blade with a razor sharp edge to cut rope or webbing and a blunt tip and dull spine to prevent slicing the kayaker. The handle is built of indestructible glass-filled nylon that increases strength and reduces weight. Compact, yet powerful, the River Shorty fits in a hard plastic sheath that can be clipped almost anywhere on a PFD and al- lows the knife to be removed and replaced with one hand.

Pry Bar and Fish Winch Century Rods
Acid Wrap Release
VJ726 (1) ROD $418.00
www.advancedfishing-usa.com
Small Game (2) REEL $249.00
www.releasereels.com
Fighting a big fish in a little kayak puts the angler at a serious disadvantage. Turn the tide on a sea monster with Release Reel’s Small Game (SG) and Century Acid Wrap VJ726. The SG reel
features an all-aluminum construction weighing less than 12 ounces, but this tiny titan can produce some pressure with 30 pounds of carbon fiber drag and a 6:1 gear ratio. If the powerful drag can’t stop your quarry, the SG packs 495 yards of 50-pound braided line to wear the fish down. Combine the SG’s power with Century’s VJ726 vertical jigging rod with acid wrap line guides that spiral around the rod blank to increase lifting power and reduce rod wobble under heavy pressure. The responsive graphite rod is constructed with Powerlux Resin to withstand the beating of kayak fish- ing. This combo will break the will of even the most stubborn sea beast or river monster.
