Have been fishing hard since Christmas with nothing to show for the effort.Been getting close as we have seen/heard of fish the last four times out.Buddy finally gets on the scoreboard today with this chunky wild doe mid-river on a blade....

Nice fish!

Might be time for a pair of waders now.

Go easy guys.....  If he wasn't standing in the water you'd be giving him a hard time for not standing in the water.

Nice fish Spoonman. Was the water very cold?

Yes, the water was quite cold.Have been trying to convince him of the benefits of waders for a while,I have an old pair he could use.He's a little quirky and is more cofortable going the jeans/raingear route.Won't even wear gumboots.I find it amusing that people feel the need to make comment on his attire when I post a photo of him.But as you can see he ain't no pussy afraid to get his paws wet.......

Full props to your buddy for getting and not wearing gloves. I don't think anyone is commenting on his etiquette, only that he might be a bit nutso.
I used to fish without waders and invariably I got sick after standing in the water all day.
I was cold in my waders last trip out.

Thank you.

I wasn't ragging on him for poor fish handling, his fishing technique, or anything else of the sort. I was merely commenting that if you plan on catching fish you may want waders to keep yourself dry. It must have sounded like an insult since three people have taken it that way. I guess if he were wearing a Tuxedo I shouldn't comment on his attire so long as he's properly handling the fish.
