Fly Fishing Chest Pack

A Guide on How to Decide Between a Fly Fishing Vest or Chest Pack   by Bob Cummins

Should I choose Fly Fishing vest or a chest pack to carry my Fly Fishing gear? This seems to be a common question that gets asked in many Fly Fishing forums and there are many opinions about this topic.

Both fly fishing vests and fly fishing chest packs have their pros and cons. It appears that everyone has their own specific reasons for choosing one style over the other and also a particular manufacturer.

There are several manufacturers like Simms, Colombia, Fishpond, Stearns and many others that offer good quality fishing vests and chest packs. Below is a list of things to take into consideration when making a decision between a vest and chest pack.

Fly Fishing Vests – Traditional or Mesh Vest?

Traditional vests are fine but can be too warm and uncomfortable to wear in hot weather. When fishing in warmer weather a mesh vest is a better choice because by design its breathable, will keep you cooler and more comfortable.

In the region were I fish, which has four seasons, I prefer a mesh over the traditional fly fishing vests because of its versatility. If you order a mesh vest one size up from the size you would normally wear you will be able to wear an extra layer of clothing underneath, like a wading jacket or rain gear. This will keep you more comfortable when fishing in colder or rainy weather conditions.

Other Basic Features to Consider When Looking For Fly Fishing Vest:

No matter what style fishing vest you decide on, an important feature to consider is does the vest have enough pockets to carry your flies, leaders, tippets, extra reels/spools, tools and other Fly Fishing Tackle. Typically a vest should have at least 15-20 pockets and a variety of small, medium and large size pockets. Any more than that can add confusion in trying to figure out which pocket contains what you are looking for. Also the pockets should be designed so that they can easily be opened and closed with one hand.

Good quality fly fishing vests will also have things like D rings and rod loops are also great features to have. D rings are convenient for attaching a landing net, tools and other accessories, while rod loops will hold your fly rod and keep your hands free for tying line, releasing fish or rowing.

Fly Fishing Chest Packs:

There are several different styles of chest packs available on the market today. Some chest packs have a single pouch in the front and there are others that have double pouches in the front.

Another style pack that is popular is the chest/back pack system. Some of these allow you to detach the vest part from the pack so you can use them separately if you choose to. This chest pack is great if you are planning a long day of fly fishing or even a weekend fishing trip. They have plenty of storage for all of your fly fishing gear, extra layers of clothing, water, food, and even a small stove.

Some things I have heard fly fishers complain about is that some fly fishing chest packs stick out too far in front of you and they prevent you from being able to see your feet or rocks when wading. Others like them because they claim that they are easy and more comfortable on their shoulders.

There are also some inflatable fly fishing vests and packs which are ideal for fishing in deep and fast moving waters. These style vests and packs use CO2 cartridges and are fast to inflate when needed and the CO2 cartridges are replaceable. This is a great vest or pack to consider if you are wading in deep, fast moving water or fishing alone and want that added safety factor built in.

Summary: Consider this just a basic guide of things to consider that will best fit your needs when looking for a new fly fishing vest or fly fishing chest pack.

Man boobs-can someone please tell me how to get rid of them?   by tony

Man boobs, male breasts, or gynecomastia, sometimes even known as moobs, are basically the result of excessive chest-fat. Not only is this fat visible on our exterior but it is also a sign that more fat is residing deeper in the body. Man boobs in themselves are not particularly dangerous from a health point of view – they are more of a cosmetic concern. But since they are a sign of internal fat, and since internal fat hampers the function of vital organs such as the heart and liver, those moobs should be taken as a health warning.

Health experts are emphasising those warnings because more and more people are being diagnosed each week with diabetes, heart diseases, high levels of cholesterol etc. Most of these illnesses are linked to the excessive internal fat which is externally visible in signs such as man boobs.

So, here are some tips on how to get rid of man boobs and lose that dangerous internal fat at the same time:

The first best way to get rid of man boobs is by eating a sensible fat-busting diet. For example, eat fewer foods high in refined carbohydrates (such as flour, bread, pastry, white rice, sugar) and try to eat more ‘complex carbs’ as they are known – such as whole grains, beans of all kinds, baked potatoes, vegetables and a variety of fresh fruits (not sweetened or canned). Choose high-protein foods such as eggs, fish, lean meats and combinations of beans or lentils with grains. Include healthy fats such as fish oils, nuts and seeds, olive oil, etc. These fats contain substances which are known as essential fatty acids. These are actually vital components to help burn off the unwanted, unhealthy fat, and of course especially man boobs!

Instead of three main meals per day, switch to eating 5-6 times in a day. However, that does not mean 5 to 6 normal-sized meals! Ideally, you should eat 5-6 smaller meals that add up in total to the same or less than you were eating before. Eating smaller meals more regularly helps stabilise your blood-sugar levels, which keeps the body and brain happy and lessens the chances of binge eating and overeating. Also, since the body uses quite a lot of energy actually to digest food, eating smaller meals more regularly helps to speed up your metabolism.

You may also wish to add a weight-loss supplement. If so, choose something sensible. There are any number of questionable products out there. Go for a tried and tested formula which gets good reviews from real users. Also aim for a supplement based on natural ingredients, vitamins and minerals. There are several such around – the most famous recently is Acai burn .

The second, equally important method of getting rid of man-boobs is exercise. Working out with weights induces the muscles to work harder and thereby burn stored energy (fat). Bench presses, lateral pulldowns, dumbbell flies, squats, crunches and so on are ideal exercises to turn that unwanted flab into a six pack and those droopy man-boobs into gleaming pecs. Your heart will thank you for it.

One of the best and cheapest ways to burn off the calories is jogging or walking (the quicker the better, and don’t forget you can do both with wrist- and ankle-weights). You may also find yourself a new social life! If you’re a sporting type or if you’d like to enjoy a new hobby, then tennis, swimming,kettlebell routines and cycling are all great exercises for burning the carbs and fat. These are the famous ‘cardiovascular exercises’ which rush vital oxygen into the body. It’s not only essential for life but oxygen also helps to burn off unwanted calories, increases brain power and leaves you with a nice ‘glow’ after exercise. Another big plus of aerobic exercises is that your increased fitness levels will give an extra boost to your metabolic rate, so you’ll drop weight quicker.

Ideally, a ‘cardio’ workout should last around 30 to 45 minutes each day, including some warm-up and warm-down time. Do it three to four times per week, or more depending how fit you are to start with. Remember to take things one step at a time!
