In the time before I lived in California. I fished the Yuba river to dark thirty. I realized it was dark 30 when I went to wade from thigh high water back to land. I could not see into the water to see the boulders and cobble. Started stumbling around in the swift current of the Yuba. Turned the flash light on but it just bounced back off the water with lots of glare and shimmering water surface.
After stumbling a few more steps it dawned on me that the flash light was water proof. Stuck it into the water then I could see without all the glare and reflected light. The rest of the 40 yard wade back to land was a lot safer.
