BIG Surf......

I managed to get out for 4hrs last night in the wee hrs... The surf was up bigtime, the biggest I have ever fished.. Took a little unplanned swim In hind sight, I should have been fishin with a friend. I bring this up because I know most of you/us do the alone thing in the middle of the night in some pretty hairy conditions. Does anyone ever wear those inflatable life jackets or anything like that? I don't but I am considering purchasing one..My night swimming has happened more than once. Last night there was a serious undertow, that coupled with good size rocks to smash your mellon on while trying to right myself made for a minute or two of nervousness...Who am I sh!tten, I had chills just walking out there trying to get past the breakers. Felt like I was on extreme fishing/elimination, loser drowns I will say it was worth my effort, half a dozen stripes from a 24" to 37"...and I am proud to say, ALL on wood....
So, should I bother buying one?

Used hard and put away dirty....
