Hi MasterJigBuilder and all,
I have no stock in the company but I found a cool product at the Fred Hall show that will save you money. It's called the '3RD grip' pole holster or holder. I've alredy played with mine and for a guy that shore and especially beach fishes it great. You can put it on your leg, waist or even backpack to free up your hands to take off a fish, whatever.
It's got an extra, long strap that you can use to attach it to a float tube too. That's another reason I bought it. Plus you can put something else besides a pole in it if you want.
FYI

Where can I find something like this? I've had it in my mind to look for something like what you just described or make one of my own.

I've seen those, they look like a great helper. When wading, I'm usually putting the rod but into my lower vest pocket or vest latch. If there was a way to get it higher, i'd get one..
With the beverage holster on one side, and the rod holder on the other, that leaves two hands free to swat bugs.

Hi there robfishon,
Sounds like you're pretty organized. Your comments made me think. I do lots of kinds of fishing but one type I have done very rarely, this is in part why I have lived to a ripe old age of 53, is wading! Not only do I find the slickest rock within a 10 meter radius, but all other rocks within a foot or so are even slicker, deeper and water there has the highest cfp second along a givin strech. One hand for the wading stick and the other to wildly flail in the air while sliding down the stream would be excellent sport.

Hey Ron,
I've taken tumbles, and every year i say i should get a wading staff.. Most of the areas i wade, i know the bottom contours and depths less then 4 feet. I think this year i might get one. It was a long winter, and i'm a little rusty getting the waders wet. With a semi clear water, i do pretty well. You are right, its not the depth, but the cfs that can get you wading...
