Waders are good to stay dry but it's good to know when not to step in the water in them. Fast currents and shifting sands are a trademark of sand bars.Wear a pfd and leave the waders off. Bring dry clothes an a towel.Several yrs back I lost a couple fishing buddies on the Vineyard when the sand turned to liquid under them at the Tisbury Pond opening.No pfds an waders killed 2 of them.
Be smart enough to stay within your abilities. What is normal to some is risky for others. What some of us hard cores do we've done for yrs and do with experience.But a chance wave can do the best without a pfd.Look what happened to a real good hardcore at the canal.Take it slow and be safe. No point in gettin killed to try to go too far unsafely.
