Does anyone know if there is a product out that would keep me from sinking up to my butt in the muck? Perhaps like some snow shoes for the mud (only less cumbersome so I don't drown myself).

I think they're called "bog-walkers" or something like that. Look through Mack's or Cabela's, you should find them in there.

When I was interning with the feds at Horicon about 15 years ago, the old timer there used to tell me stories about the CO's "skiing" through the cattails to surprise hunters.

Makes me chuckle to think of some guy "Tony Little exer-gliding" through the cattails!! can you imagine sitting there in your boat next to the cattails and seeing this joker..., gun slinged over his shoulder, deke bag on his back, cross country skiing around the bay?

 

[carp_assasin]

just don't get your skis crossed !

Man isn't that the worst feeling? Last year I took a dive but I already had a good coat of ice on my coat and stuff that I didn't get wet at all

 

[carp_assasin]

worst than getting wet is the feeling of panic as your going down, and can't save yourself.

 

[Huntin Horseman]

yep and at the same time you don't want ot get you gun wet and you don't want ot get your hands wet It's a lose-lose situation!
