The Ruski running over Georgians is the next thing I will get blamed for
Seriously ,wetsuit should be used as a "tool" not an solution.
Eventually, you get more comfortable and you start eyeing rocks that you shouldn't. Every time I get on a ##$%^&& rock I think I see one a little further out. Them you try to get it only to find a jaded piece of real estate you cant stay on. Another annoying wetsuit thing is using a rod as a cane. Last Friday night I was solo on the Montauk south side when my but cap broke while wading and a rock got in and stuck.Every time I casted the rock flew forward and then backwards.Its was like having a rattle in my rod....hmmmmm maybe that is why that cow ate my rigged eel on a second cast ? There might be something to it
Another thing to consider is BAGS. I put in caps because they will drive you nuts. You think you can get on a rock with your standard bag , you should of seen me at Cutty for almost half an hour trying to get up on a rock at SW. Every #$%$^&* time I got up like a seal by sliding on my stomach ,my Hunter bag (which weighs 50 lb with water) would pull me down. My partner was pissing in his pants laughing. I had to take the bag off and put it on the rock. Then I placed the rod on the rock. Now I only had to get on before the wave washed the bag and rod off the rock. It wasn't pretty....be careful out there
Get a smallest bag for your needs....
