O.k.

2. Do not attempt to leap (in any way, shape or form) when armpit
deep in waders. Looks like we're already beginning to see a pattern

Yes, and often are when comfortably distant from the event itself.

Unfortunately, poor choices are not unknown when seized by fish fever.
I've had a few close ones myself, where I knew better but simply
couldn't resist taking a chance to get to that 'better water' over
there. The Tongue River lower box canyon in Wyoming comes to mind.....

Luckily I've wised up a bit as I've aged. Or maybe I'm just too lazy
now. :-)
