Extrasport EON fishing PFD is stuffed with features without overloading the angler.

The PFD has 8 pockets and mesh pockets for gear storage. Two pockets are designed to hold a hand-held VHF. A waist belt keeps the PFD from riding up. There are five D-rings and two elastic gear clips. Four Hypolon patches will secure a retractor to keep tools at hand but out of the way. All of these features are crammed into a PFD that is light and comfortable.

“Thank God my dad wasn’t a podiatrist,” Ric jokes about following in the footsteps of a famous outdoor writer. After graduating from Radford University and serving two years in Russia with the Peace Corps, Ric returned to Virginia Beach and started writing for The Fisherman magazine, where his dad was editor. When the kayak fishing scene exploded, Ric was among the first to get onboard. His 2007 book, The Complete Kayak Fisherman is one of the first how-to books to introduce anglers to paddle fishing. In 2010, Ric took on the role of editor at Kayak Angler magazine where he covered the latest trends in kayak fishing tactics, tackle, gear and destinations. A ravenous angler, Ric fishes from the mountain to the sea chasing everything from smallmouth bass to striped bass.
