Anyone wear one for coarse fishing- they have lots of useful pockets for carrying stuff instead of a bag.

I hate em....I wear one when I'm fly fishing [because I'm a tart] but never when I'm coarse fishing because
1. Too many pockets...I can never find anything and most of them are too fiddly ar$e small to be of any real use.
2.Too hot in summer....no warmth in winter
3. Too heavy with gear in....with no gear in what's the point ?
4.The pockets catch on things as do the things hanging off the gizmos
I did have a long sort of "countryman" waistcoat with maybe 4 decent sized pockets. That was OK but it stayed behind when I went home one day.
Tigger...all I can say is that you must have neck muscles like a bull if you carry all your gear in the waistcoat.
