Really nice to see the life jackets also, seems like so few people wear them.
I wear one religiously.

here in NY state, you never , and I mean NEVER see a life jacket on anyonw thats fishing... Even mid winter when guys are fishing in 36 degree water that is nothing but white caps in 30 mph wind, on these massive 40 mile long 600 feet deep lakes.. never made any sense to me... I never fish without one... I swim like a cinderblock so it a must, but even if I could swim I would wear one... a LOT of fishermen and boaters drown on the Finger and Great Lakes because they wanted to be comfortable and not wear a vest .... After 2 minutes i don't even realize I am wearing one.. Good to see the OP and his lovely bride wearing one!!
