re: Can you actually drown in waders?

Hunted a pond in Kisatchie full of stumps, logs and whatever in 28-degree weather. Didn't have any waders so I borrow a pair a little too small for me but oh well. Had to descend down a hill to the pond and once I entered the water, I knew one false move and I'm down. Even though the water was waist high, every step was calculated and thought through. Gun in one hand and grabbing anything I could as to not fall with the other. Then after the hunt the walk back up hill in skinny waders, not fun when you hunt and a spartan race breaks out.
