    Cold alright; in our first season out there as poor students we couldn't afford waders. So put as much gear on the top half as we could, and we'd wade around in stubbies or undies and bare feet. Kept a towel and track pants in the maimai... I'm a bit softer these days!

    youre a bit softer ya say .............weeeeelllllll....no bloody wonder wading about out there with your crown jewels clad in jockey internationals famous Lane walker rudkin made in CHCH white Yfronts..or am i too old yor you???you laddie are bloody lucky one of them big long fineels"tuna" didnt get a whiff of the bits and decide on a snack.
    FFS even had one try to nibble my wader boot -god help it had it got through -the toejam would have choked an elephant.
    funniest of all are the flounder particularly on the western side -often wading along and bang -big disturbance on surface of shitty water as an angry flounder is disturbed from snoozing by a clumsy wader boot!
