HA HA^ Ive been bitten by brown water snakes, pinched by cray fish, a occasional leach, rocks fallen on my tippy toes, but in all its been fun. Wouldn't be half the adventure if it were any other way.
dont want to revive an old post but:
it might seem a bit odd, but in a pinch i've used trash bags as waders (one per leg)
cheap, disposable, waterproof as long as you dont get caught on something
if your going to try it, get the ones with the strings built into the top, I never figured out a better way to keep them on
also, they go over your feet/cothing but not over your shoes- think mc hammer pants
Interesting stuff. So you wear them inside the shoes?
:ha::ha:HAHA! I think I'd be laughed right out of the field if I went out with shoes over trash-bag waders.
I do have to say that it sounds like it would be a good idea in a pinch, but the visuals... hahah!
For those too young to remember the HammerPants craze: http://thumbnail.search.aolcdn.com/aais/EMI/media/mchammer/0094631039058.jpg
What kind of boots? Also, you got pretty lucky with a 3 days stay in hospital. Did they give you antivenin or Crofab or did they decide to let it get better on its own?I got bit by a cottonmouth through my boots loose pants and boots did not help me none I still spent 3 days in the hospitel
