I was taking some shots of a moose drinking at stream side and I slipped. Down I went of course I had to protect the camera and my flyrod so I ended up on my rear both arms up and my waders filling with water. Try standing up when you are wearing chest waders filled with water. Pulled out the line on the rod put it around my arm,(kept the rod safe) then shot ten frames or so of the moose. Sat there in the middle of the stream for an hour or so till my fishing partner came back to meet for shore lunch. Really didn't want to move for fear of being washed down stream.
