from someone who has gone in the drink wearing waders more than a few times, If you know your in water over your head, keep your feet up and try to float on your back. any air in your waders will be trapped in your legs and will help you stay afloat. From there, if you think you cant get out safely, back paddle out to a lobster pot buoy and catch your breath, and think about taking off your gear- korkers, top, and waders. If your wearing bootfoots, tie your boots to the buoy so you can put them back on to help you get out.
panicing= death
