Wore a heavy jacket and a full length heavy raincoat, kinda like a trench coat, that somewhat floated on the surface. Kept towels and dry clothes in his truck and would change clothes. My buddy and I wore waders and heavy jackets and would freeze. The old man was fine. Glad this subject came up. Hadn't thought about it in years. Nowadays I limit my night fishing to snook in the warmer months even though I used to do quite well bass fishing with Musky Jitterbugs. Guess I just wimped out. Who wouldn't wading in snake and alligator infested water ways at night barefoot. Tom Quote
davecon Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 Been fishing in Florida my entire life. NEVER had a problem with gators. Only time they are an issue is when they have been fed by people, which for some reason is a common practice with transplants. Never had a problem with snakes either and for years I coon hunted, I'm talking waste deep in swamp water at night. We never thought much about it, but then again I have no idea how to handle snow or drive on ice (and don't want to learn). Guess it's all in what you're used to. 2 Quote
