you cant get back to the surface or tred water with waders on full of water, so you have to take them off before you run out of air.


What?

They weigh the same.

go jump in a pool and try to swim with them on.

its not about the weight, it keeps you from tredding water or swimming

I got thrown from boat a couple years ago on MLK day in Muck boots. They suck to try and swim with on and I tried a couple times to get them off without success.

I had a friend that flipped his pirogue in a Josephs Bayou after a hunt. Him panicking almost cost him his life. Was able to settle him down and he finally calmed down enough to grab a sack of decoys and then just lay back and let his feet float. It was a pretty scary ordeal. Almost had to hit him with my paddle to keep him from flipping me. I backed away from him and noticed his shotgun was still in his pirogue and went to grabbed it. He yells "frick the gun, save me first!".
