Since it appears to be heading towards a chilly weekend, I thought I would start a short list of things to take and things to wear when the weather is rearing its ugly head. These are a few things I take when the weather is going to be really nasty and the rivers will be on the drop. Feel free to add to this post so we can all prepare ourselves and some of the novice's....
Always take: A complete set of dry clothes, including a warm jacket
Extra pair of warm socks and boots
Handwarmers,waterproof matches, candle
Sturdy rope, shovel, first aid kit, fire extinquisher
Should take: Extra fishing rod & reel
Clothing: Fleece gloves, fleece hoody, rainjacket with hood,
Warm hat, ski underwear (thermal),Extra hat,
Wool garments and fleece are a lot warmer than cotton stuff
Fleecy pants are better than jeans in the waders.
Reminders: Tell someone where you will be fishing
Be careful wading, and crossing loose rocks and log jams
Take a cell phone, and your fishing licences
Fish with a buddy
Be sure to turn off you lights in the car
Don't drive solo into roads that are lightly used especially
during high wind or snow
If you'r going into the backwoods, take a chainsaw.
As for fishing gear..........DON'T FORGET IT EITHER!!!!
