Not sure what his setup was at that time, but from what I heard from my family, was that he had the boot style waders and the water filled into them when he was fishing a river under a bridge. He was with his wife at the time but she couldn't swim or do anything to help. They were an elderly couple, and she couldn't speak english so people driving by couldn't understand her pleads for help.

But in the end, he died doing what he loved. And fortunately passed down all his fishing knowledge to me.

Bass on a fly would be crazy! I never heard of people fly fishing for crappie and bass, mostly trout. I'm planning to learn more about fly fishing this summer and hopefully get some catches. So far I've only got creek chubs, sunfish, and trout on the fly.
