Due to the nature of lures, you don’t want them hanging loose in any of your pockets when you’re fishing otherwise you might be in for a nasty injury. The advantage of these vests though is that not only do they have a vast number of pockets but some of them have very large pockets with storage space as well.
Your fishing vest is designed to store everything that you might need in order to fish and that includes lures, hooks and lines. These can be kept safely within your vest to be used whenever they are needed. As long as you’re keeping them safe, your vest is able to store anything.
