There is a post on the Indiana Board where two young men drowned at Patoka Lake. Tragic and preventable deaths.

I recently bought for myself a new auto/manual inflatable PFD that I plan on wearing at all times while on my boat. The price was $85.57

These PFDs are light and comfortable and one hardly knows they are wearing them.

I consider myself to be a good swimmer but I have to face the fact that was 30 years ago. Add in cold water or a head injury and we have a recipe for disaster.

Please,fellow fishin.com members, wear your PFDs and be safe.
