From all we've seen, year after year, and especially with this year, we've got to gear up better to stop stuff like this from happening. Would a set of SOSpenders have saved Kenny? Maybe, probably.

We all preach a little safety here but I wonder how much of us follow up on it more. I know I'm guilty of not wearing something like that in the suds or as much as I should on a boat.

We all talk about it and make sure that our kids are all bundled up in a PFD but what about us? Too inconvenient.

Just something that we need to look into as a group. Most of us wear Korkers, or wear our rain gear outside of the waders AND a wader belt, but is that enough?

Not trying to run on and on here but every year, the same thing stares us in the face and we do the same thing year in and year out. "What a shame, wasn't wearing a life jacket", but do we put one on?

OK, I'm done for now...
