What about just pulling your waders down so that they can't hold as much water?
Leaving your boots on for traction once you get on shore might be a good thing,
plus being able to pull your waders back up may help retain what little body
heat you may have left.

That's what I used to do when I took dunks in those latex waders. When I
got to water shallow enough that I could stand in, I'd unhook the
suspenders and let the top of the waders drop down which allowed
the water to run out as I walked to shore.

I don't know what would have happened if I had drifted into a tree in the
water - I don't think I would have been able to climb up onto the tree
trunk, and if I went under it I'd be tangled up in the branches.

I used to have a downloaded video clip that showed a wader swept downstream
and rapidly approaching a sweeper in the water. The instruction pointed out
that you have one, and only one chance. The wader (now swimmer) was in the
appropriate downriver position, and used his leg muscles to literally walk
to branches of the sweeper. As his feet hit the branch, he flexed his legs
and used his back to kind of surf against the current, for a moment. This
allowed him to clear the end of the branch and continue downstream.

Darned if I can find the video clip to see where it was found. I can't find
it on google either.

Excellent service to the community, Myron, much appreciated. I
forwarded your message to all of my fishing buddies.


I echo that -- it was a public service.

Scary stuff. More and more, I think it's not a good idea to fish alone, but
solitude is one of the things I like about fly fishing.
