In my younger days,I floated (on a truck innertube) or waded just about every inch of the Pit between Lake Britton and PH5. If you've fished the Pit much and have yet to have a mishap then you're either not fishing very aggressively or you're a Superman.

"Rivers course through my dreams, rivers cold and fast, rivers well-known and rivers nameless, rivers that seem like ribbons of blue water twisting through wide valleys, narrow rivers folded in layers of darkening shadow, rivers that have eroded down deep in a mountain's belly, sculpted the land, peeled back the planet's history exposing the texture of time itself."
— Harry Middleton (Rivers of Memory)
"Each night as I haul myself onto the back of county garbage truck no. 2, there is a familiar wind, some thread of moonglow or starlight, a splatter of dark rain on my skin, something that stirs my memory, and again, if even for a brief moment, I am on some mountain river, some stretch of bright water, full of possibilities, including the possibility of trout, perhaps one that, when hooked, will haul me in and out of time, in and out of life's mysterious and frightening, wondrous and incomprehensible continuum, even to the edges of the universe." -- Harry Middleton

OK, I know I'm dredging old water, but I use a wading staff sometimes and I'm 31. I started using it after falling in the river a couple of years ago. Do I feel like an idiot? Yes. However when I see my friends slip in the river and take on water like the titanic I can't help feeling a little less idiotic. Don't fight it. After slipping and ruining your camera or even worse your head, you may see the benefit of using one sometimes. Peace, Pit
