As I have had quite a few bumps and bruises! Glasses would be my number one on the safety list for sure. A person should never throw a line out without them.

Just last Saturday I hooked my own lip on a misguided back cast. That was just inches away from a more painful and possibly permanent reminder if I wasn't wearing glasses. Also, I second your advice of using a belt. It doesn't just keep your lower half dry-ish, imagine trying to regain your balance and footing once those legs fill with water.

Also, there are rattlesnakes and other critters out there in the heat of the summer that we need to have a buddy as a back up in case of an emergency.

I went under some years back because I was in fast current waist deep and without a belt and staff. That one dunk taught me a lesson that I still remember to this day. Thanks for sharing there valuable safety tips.
