The NRS Chinook Fishing Lifejacket (PFD) is the world's best-selling lifejacket for kayak anglers. This lifejacket is designed to accommodate the needs of kayaking anglers and those fishing from a vessel, combined with the comfort of a standard PFD.

    Great Fishing PDF

    Comfortable, back flotation pad is set up high off lower back. Allows for sitting all the way back in seat, I have NRS high back seats. Lots of pockets and places to stash gear.

    Great PFT at a price

    You can’t go wrong with NRS. This PFD is very comfortable and infinitely adjustable to get that perfect fit. I purchased one a year ago and couldn’t pass up this close out to get a second for my buddy kayak.
