Wet Wading Shoes / Booties Travel Tip

This is the first of many different travel tips that will help you prepare for your next salt water fly fishing trip.

This angler is from Cananda and has just finished a killer week of fishing at Andros South Bonefishing Lodge on South Andros Bahamas while attending Bruce Chards famous Bonefish School.

Pack a couple garbage bags with you.  You can then put your wet wading shoes in the garbage bags when you pack up to head home.  There usually is not enough time for your wading shoes to dry out completely before you travel home.

Dunking and soaking your salt water wading shoes in a bucket of fresh water will insure a long life for your wading shoes or booties.  .  He is spraying out his booties with fresh water for the ride home.   More travel tips to come so stay tuned.
