If you're an angler who prefers the traditional self-contained feel of a well-stocked flyfishing vest, we recommend looking no further than the Clearwater Mesh Vest. This modern, lightweight fishing vest wins us over with subtle yet significant convenience features that are normally found in vests with far heftier price tags. This particular model is the mesh version of the original Clearwater Vest, and brings us the ideal balance of mesh's breathability and the tough durability of recycled ripstop polyester. Plus, with eight pockets, two chest fly-drying patches, and elastic loops tippet bar attachment, this classic vest keeps us fully stocked for a day on the river.
