“Even if the weather is 20 degrees, I got no problem going out for a couple of hours. I’ll be prepared. My waders I bought too big for some reason, but it panned out because I’m able to put two pairs of wool socks on, couple of pairs of sweats, nitrile gloves, fingerless gloves, and I’ll be able to last. And then I don’t have to battle the crowds.”
– Brian Beach
