[QUOTE="Lt.Dan, post: 5764318, member: 23645"] I have found I am wearing my PFD every time I go out in my little jon boat. I fish below Chickamauga Dam mostly, not up near the dam. That's a little to hairy for me. I keep below the railroad bridge. Still feel safer wearing the vest because the current is strong. It's a small price to pay should something bad happen. I remember one time on Oneida Lake up north, I was in the same size jon boat. I was sitting on my life jacket. The wife and I got out past the break wall and suddenly found ourselves in 4 footers. It took me what felt like a half hour to get the boat turned around and behind the break wall. I ordered my wife to put her life jacket on, but didn't dare try and raise up enough to get mine from under me and on. I will say that was one of the scariest times in my life. I feel sorry for that man's family and for him. [/QUOTE]
