looking "cool" doesn't always work.
I agree, and as most people on this forum would find , safety is part of our hobie, oooops hobby...
When i read this on news.com i was gob smacked that they were wearing steel caps....there not cool anyway....
Sorry for the loss and hope everybody thinks twice about safety before heading out even if in a lake or river...let alone the ocean...
Somebody just back of you while you are fishing is as bad as someone looking over your shoulder while you write a letter to your girl. ~Ernest Hemingway
