That's the only thing that's kept me from starting. I don't need another expensive hobby

Waders
I bought a pair when I first started for like $260 and I've used them 5 times in about 5 years 
Get you a good pair of hip boots and a good pair of knee boots.
I use Max4 camo on just about everything I own for duck hunting. (blind bag, jacket, waders, gun, hat, gloves, etc)
Your gear depends on where you will be hunting. Hunting in a blind...don't buy waders.
Benelli is a good gun. I have a nova pump that I use as a backup and a SBE2 for my go-to.

I usually only hunt the marsh. When I'm not in the marsh, I'm in a sunk blind with full cover so it really doesn't matter The max4 camo looks exactly like the grass type on our levee's.

I was thinking of starting as well. It's good to see I am not alone. I got my German Short haired Pointer earlier in the year and hoping to teach him to retrieve. My problem is the people I hang out with do not hunt so I have no idea where to start.

I'll def need waders. Will mainly be hunting flooded hardwood/cypress areas. Lots of times ride 4 weeler and wade out. Rarely use a boat other than bateau

You need a friend with a boat and a dog. Oh wait... Ok, now just find us somewhere to hunt.
