ABSTRACT:
A fly fishing vest having a mesh panel forming a rear portion of the vest with a removable rear panel secured to cover substantially the entire mesh panel until it is desired to provide additional ventilation to the fly fishing person. At that time, an upper edge of the rear panel is disconnected from the vest. In addition, side panel portions are unsnapped from connection to the vest. The rear panel is then rolled into an unzippered pocket from which the rear panel extends and in which one edge of the rear panel is anchored. Upon successful placement of the rear panel in the pocket extending laterally across the rear of the vest, the pocket is zippered to contain the rear panel in place until needed again. With the rear panel secured in the pocket, 100% of the mesh panel at the rear portion of the vest is exposed to provide a substantial increase in ventilation for the fly fishing person.
