NOMADUK FLY VESTS

1).NOMADUK 'FEATHERWEIGHT' Deep Water Fly Vest

A very unique item of fly fishing attire, to our knowledge the 'FEATHERWEIGHT' is the only waterproof,  windproof, breathable wading vest made....... it is certainly the lightest.

Specifically designed to cater for deep water fly fishing eg.: summer salmon, autumn steelhead, night time and saltwater Baltic seatrout  and float-tubing it is also popular amongst Stripe Bass fishermen and also useful when wading tropic flats. 

Made from the same Ventflex treated Meryll nylon as used in manufacturing the 'EXPLORER' chest  wader jacket and also the 'SAFARI' series, the 'FEATHERWEIGHT' weighs nano grammes and is so well designed for weight distribution you hardly know that you are wearing it. 

The functional thinking behind the design is one of having the right size of pocket and attachments in the correct place to enable the enthusiasts of each of the specialties in fly fishing named above to organise a selection of equipment in such a manner that they avoid the normally overburdened vest. Features include:

bulletExternal is Meryll fabric with - 2 large tape seamed 'sock' style cargo pockets 
bullet2 x 'D' rings for snips, haemostats, hook hone etc
bulletadjustable rod-holding strap permits hands-free changing of flies etc without coming out of water
bulletInternal is mesh and waterproof lining - with 2 x gussetted pockets for small fly boxes or spools of tippet material (complete with eyelets these pockets act as tippet dispensers)
bullet2 elasticised pockets for floatant etc
bullet1 large zippered pocket for glasses, car keys, spare spool etc.
bulletBack has large zippered pocket which can either be opened in summer for better air circulation or used to store 'EXPLORER' Chest Wader Jacket.
bulletThe broad 'cut' of the padded yoke at neck distributes the weight further back across the shoulders rather than cutting into neck and thus avoiding the potential discomfort caused in the unlikely event that the 'FEATHERWEIGHT' is seriously  overloaded
 

If correctly filled the 'FEATHERWEIGHT'  will store exactly what is needed in a light organised fashion. 

Optimum use is when worn with 'STEALTH' breathable wind- and waterproof Country Pullover or Zippered Country Sweater with the 'EXPLORER' Chest Wader Jacket packed away as back up for the heavy rain.

Each rod is designed to do a specific job but is ‘tweaked’ to give that little bit more whether it be in relation to lines used or quarries sought after giving that much more value for money. On top of this  all rods come in their own protective Rod / Reel bag with room for a fly box enabling everything to be carried together.

Finished in a flash-free black matt, with the best of fittings and cork plus black aluminium reel  seats, the quality of workmanship can be seen in the trueness and seating of each joint plus the outstanding standard of varnishing.

There is a difference in the make-up of the Saltwater and  Freshwater designs with the latter being made up of 50 million modulus plus carbon resulting in an exceptionally light, powerful and very responsive action whilst Saltwater fish and fishing conditions demand a more robust taper, a more powerful butt section and carbon structure for strength and quick loading, plus oversized snake rings
