I took a dump off a rock in the Westfield about 10 years ago just below the Chesterfield Gorge...it happened in 3' of water...in January. I gained a new respect for why people drown...I got the wind knocked outta me from the shock of the 38 degree water...I could NOT stand up again. My buddy was 10' away on the enbankment and saw the whole thing and had already put his rod down to go in after me when I was finally able to stand up again. THREE feet of friggin water. I literally could not get my feet under me. THAT is the scariest feeling I have ever had in my life. Always bring a change of clothes when it's cold...I had all I could do 10 minutes later at the truck to get my cold wet stuff off.
