I really never gave much thought to belts till 2 yrs ago. I was fishing a stretch of the snake outside ID Falls (Tanksgiving weekend , so COLD). The water wasn't that high, Knee hiegth, but the current was strong. I hooked a fish, and turned my body to yell at my nephew. Feet went sliding out from under me. I put my hand down to stop my fall and yes Head was under water for a second....BURRRRR! When I stood up all that water had gon right down my waders and sat at my belt till I got out and loosened my belt. Looked like the Pillsbury Dough Girl and weighed a ton.
Firm believer in belts now. Lesson learned the hard way.
