Those SOSpenders look like a slick idea.

Waterfowl hunting can be very dangerous. (also a lot of fun). But you should hunt with a partner especially under those conditions. Many years ago when I was young and daring my cousin and I went trout fishing one winter day. The temp when we left the house was -12*. We both were only wearing hip boots with layers of clothes/socks. Where the water was running in the stream it was open and we were catching some nice fish. At least we were until I slipped and fell into the water up to my just past my waist. We were about 3/4 mile from his truck. I tossed him my rod and he tossed me his keys and I ran for the truck. My legs and feet were so cold they felt like they were in a vise!

How do those inflate ot? Do you have to pull a cord or does it do it automatically somehow?

Had a little fun and wrote a ukulele song about the experience. Its good therapy! |
Just letting you all know that I made a full recovery.

I hope you used a wader belt, with a sheath knife attached to it...so you can cut the waders off of you, before it fills-up with water and weighs you down.

Sorry to hear this!

Guy's, one of the better solutions we found was
to place a rod or walking staff in each blind. To be use when you go collect your ducks. This can help you balance and prevent those slips. It can also be used to test the water depth ahead of your next step. |
