Sort of an informal poll here. The basis for my question is this...a few years ago I bought a chest pack on sale at a local hardware store that also sells a little fishing stuff. Not a great pack but OK. Price was right. The problem is I think it is too big. It gets in the way sometimes. Of course the problem might be my inept casting. Anyway, thinking of getting something different.

Who among you wears a fishing vest and who uses a chest pack? What are the pros and cons of each? Thanks for any input.
