What would you prefer inflatable or none inflatable PFD
@mrman639519 күн бұрын
I’d also say another positive to a non inflatable is the fact that you won’t ever have to purchase another tank should you fall in the water . PFD saved my life as well

I fish the dirty D but a few miles upstream. Normally I’d would have hung up my gear for the year but seeing your vids from colder months gave me hope. Your videos are super helpful. I tried that area bc of your vids. I have a reg paddle yak…. The flow (and wind) bullied me all day. I might try again when the flow and wind are down. Cold enuff to see your breath and catching smallies is my goal this year. Thank you for the vids 🫡

My biggest concern is discoloration in a pot. I am still looking for a good long term solution (I am going to order black label DoP and BP low odor next) because the DoP Red Label is TERRIBLE with prolonged heat exposure. Seems fine for maybe 1 remelt. After that it turns to a bone yellow color; even if the temperature never goes above 310 on the remelts.
