Surf gear rinsing

[WoodyCT]

Smelly gross waders and wetsuits-- YUCK!

You are asking for a nasty infection.

Turn them inside out and soap them every now and then, or just rinse with fresh when you can.

Even just a few hours hanging in the sun will help as the uv will kill some of the microbes making the stench.

Since this post is giving attention to gear maintenance, do any of you regularly clean drag assemblies? I find with frequent use and rinsing, the drag on my Shimano Stratic (when I happen to hook a fish) tends to stick, drawing line sporadically. Solution? I clean the washer assembly periodically. Is a light coating of lube recommended?
