After wading in the waters near Chipiwinoxer (sp?) Pt. in Warwick I developed severe cellulitus in both my legs. Something must have gotten in through a cut in my skin (my legs are always banged up) and I got infected. My legs swelled like ballons, hurt like hell (like the skin was going to split), and they were so hot you could have fried an egg on them.

My legs have not been the same since, they retain massive amounts of fluid and sometimes there are sharp pains in my ankles. All this from some little microbe. I was not wearing waders and if I had been all this would have been avoided. So know where and in what your going to be wading in.
