A PFD isn't a bad idea, but based on Myron's article, it appears to
me that a well-used wading belt and a good serrated knife to slice
open the legs of your waders (Peter C carries one) would be highly
useful.



I always carry a knife, just in case I need to cut myself out of my waders
or a tangled flyline or something. However, a good PFD would save my life
even if I were unconcious, or too cramped to use the knife, or any such
emergency situation. Even in a raw panic, the PFD could help me if I
couldn't help myself.
