Wade fishing setup

[Michael]

I like to pull a "do-net", to which I've attached an additional waterproof tackle box. I keep unused tackle on the dry side, and then as I switch I put in the other non waterproof box. I can also tether a small dry box for my phone, and another dry box (actually wet box) with gulp-type baits. I also have a FEL belt with $6 WM pliers (replaced original FEL that locked up) and FEL net and wading shoes. I have two Citicas on cheap rods. Costas. TBH Buff. TBH/GG shirts. Columbia or Magellan wading pants.

Fashion show? Unless I'm wading naked (which I'm not keen on doing), I'm going to wear something, so it might as well be wading pants and a TBH shirt. Rods and baits are a must. Could probably get by without the net or the "do net", but I'm pretty strong so it's no problem (for me) to pull that kind of (floating) weight through the water behind me...even when loaded down with fish!

I'll be testing a new filming setup this weekend while I'm fishing a tourney down in Port Mansfield! I'll let you know how it goes.

Im usually in
Magellan quick dry pants
Magellan neoprene Wading Boots
Long Sleeve Columbia **** with a buff and Coastas
I usually have the Everlast G2 Net
Needle Nose Plyers
The Fish Grip
StinkyPants Fishing Stringer
All my lures or hooks are in my shirt pockets but I really need to look into a wading belt and or water proof tackle bag

Quick Question what does everyone use if their plyers get stuck from salt water use, is there anything you treat them with to help reduce the sticking?

Rinse them off and hit them with some Corrosion X.

i disagree, I'm sure there is an element to it but quite a bit of the gear is very purposeful and i believes either enhances performance or creates comfort. My simms gear is on its fourth wading season and i've always been very happy with it. Same time I wade with guys who buy stuff at academy and have watched them replace it time and time again.

I agree I am of the mindset that you get what you pay for, and that goes for hunting, fishing heck any passion that one pursues.

Very well put Sean. All my gear is older and still in great condition. My set ups are for specific fishing tactics. Some people just don't understand I guess

Does wading inside my boat count? Lol
Last week we took on some major water during some high winds and a near by storm. We were all standing in about 8" of water in the boat. Kinda spooky.

Im fixing to go on my first baffin guided trip this weekend and we'll be wading chunking them plastic things. Ive gotta get me some wading gear this week.
