Yakkers,

Some good articles in this magazine. A fishing article that is pretty basic, and a couple of really good safety articles on rescues. One focused on a fishing situation that brought up some good thought provoking hmmmms. For instance: proper PFD wear, clothes, how all of the stuff we hang on our kayak effects our ability to get out from under the boat or back in it, etc...
I would say it would be a good read for all of us as well as the second rescue article as well which focuses on how to help yourself if turned over and someone else if you are the rescuer, get back in their boat (for a Sit in).

Currently out of town and missing the fishing.

Roach,

Thanks for the heads-up. I'll go get a copy this week.

Also a good article on the NRS website about cold water paddling at; http://www.nrsweb.com/Cold_Water_Layering.asp [excited]

Evidently two teenagers in Richmond went over in a canoe in the James about a week or two ago. They have not found them yet. No protective clothing from the reports I heard from the locals when we were fishing there this weekend. [sad][sad]
