These staffs provide great support and feel much more stable than the folding staff. jborn

2015年8月12日 · When landing a big fish, if you have to drop a permanent wading staff into the water; even if it attached to your wading belt, it is one more thing that the fish can take the leader around.

2013年2月18日 · A good wading stick is a lot cheaper than taking a tumble and hurting yourself. I like the Fishpond wading staff. It's very light. Good advice about getting a ski pole.

2011年1月13日 · Generally when I hit the water and feel the need for my wading staff, I don't "re-collapse" it but instead let it drift next to me. I keep it close by use of a belt attachment that has a two-piece magnet (similar to net magnetic attachments) which has an adjustable-length shock cord connected at each end to the two parts of the magnet.
