I'll second that. I fell into a fast moving river while trout fishing once. My neoprenes kept me dry bobbing on top.
In addition to the aready mentioned suggestions it helps to SLIDE your feet along the bottom while wading. This helps to:
1. Avoid having current pull your foot and throw off your balance
2. Detect any changes in the bottom (ie. dropoffs, humps or rocks) that may trip you.
