Do you take the time?

I am honestly not trying to be dense here.. but all that I read said boats.. float tubes.. waders.. boots.. etc.. stuff that is in the water or more specifically the muddy bottom of the water..

I know that my line does drag the bottome at times but as I bring it back in I do slide it thru my fingers so debris etc is removed.. my shoes. .... unless I fall in the water.. may have limited contact with the waters edge..like I may take one or two steps into the very shallow water...

againg.. this is all on two local lakes that as far as I know are not infested.. and I sure as heck dont want to be the one to goof and they end up infested in some way... so... with all that in mind..

should I be cleaning my rod and line and my shoes more thoroughly??? and also my net.. if I do need to.. what exactly should I be doing with the 409 or whatever cleaner is available to me...

btw.. I did talk to a local fly shop a while back.. to his knowledge none of the local fresh waters were infested (immediate San Diego area)....
