Stohlquist Keeper

Stohlquist Keeper PFD utilizes the same high quality construction and comfort as Stohlquist’s recreational and touring PFDs, but with the additions of fishing specific features. This is an excellent, year round fishing vest.

This is a full body, thin backed PFD, making this a comfortable life jacket suited to both high back, and traditional kayak seats. With the Wrapture shaped torso, the Keeper wraps around your body, fitting snugly and staying out of the way whether you’re paddling, or standing to fish.

Obviously, when you’re fishing, you want everything you need to be within easy reach and accessibility. The Keeper has a selection of easy to access and internally organised pockets for all your kit. The zips on these are fitted with gripped toggles, so it’s really easy to open them one handed, even with cold or wet hands.

There are expandable neoprene pockets on the front of the larger tackle pocket, which are perfect for accessories you need regularly. These can be secured on the many mounting points the Keeper has, so that you don’t have to watch your nippers sink to the bottom of the river if you let go of them.

Behind the larger pockets are two handwarmer pockets, ideal if you’re fishing on colder days and want to breathe some life back into your fingers before you fish.
