Why it’s useful for inflatable boat fishing

If you fish solo, launch from quieter spots, or travel light, a compact PLB is easy to keep with you rather than stowed in the boat. The RescueMe PLB1 406 is sized to fit in a lifejacket, and the retractable antenna and protective activation flap are designed for practical use when you need it most.
