Page 15
Tip #45: Keep your Fishing Vest Organized
If you use a fishing vest to carry around your tackle and lure
you’ll want to keep it as organized as you can so that you’re
not fumbling around looking for something when you need it. If
you’re not going to be using something leave it home so that you
only take along the essentials.
Tip #46: Carry a Wading Staff
When you’re fishing in water that is rough or unfamiliar you
might want to carry a wading staff to keep you stable and give
you better footing.
Tip #47: Wear Good Shoes
A good pair of wading shoes will let your grip the bottom that
you’re walking on. Choose shoes that have soles with rubber
cleats since these are ideal of bottoms that are made of mud,
fine gravel, sand, or soft silt.
Tip #48: Take Along the Sun Block
Although it may seem like a small tip to mention, taking along
the sun block is one thing that you don’t want to forget. After
standing in a sunny stream for eight hours you’ll be glad that
you remembered to bring along some protection.
Tip #49: Use Polarized Glasses
Wearing polarized glasses is one of the best things that you can
do. You’ll be able to see beneath the water so you can keep an
eye on your fish. Don’t forget a hat to reduce the amount of
glare that you experience.
Tip #50: Discouraging Insects
If you want to discourage insects you’ll want to avoid wearing
clothes that are red, yellow, black, white, or navy blue. These
colors can attract black flies, deerflies, gnats, and
mosquitoes.
Tip #51: Dress for the Weather
Wear the right type of clothing for the weather. You don’t want
to be caught in a rainstorm without protective gear. Remember
that it’s always easier to take off a layer of clothing than it
is to be without anything to put on.
