[black][size 3]Hey HFT,[/size][/black]

[black][size 3]You are correct, no PFD is required for shore fishing. [/size][/black]
[black][size 3][/size][/black]
[black][size 3]But, if a person is wading in that river, there are times that it could be a good idea to wear a PFD. Although a wading belt is a good safety measure, folks should also consider their own abilities and sure-footedness while standing on slippery surfaces, and the nature of potentially swift moving currents.

[black][size 3][/size][/black]
[black][size 3]If there is any concern in a person's mind about a slip and fall, a PFD could be a good addition for more piece of mind - it could also be a life saver. There are a lot of good choices for PFDs that are comfortable and do not inhibit movement too much while fishing. [/size][/black]

[black][size 3]Also, as was mentioned, if there are egg stealing rainbows about - that could be a good time to use egg patterns to pick up a few. [/size][/black]
