If the stick thing wasn't enough the other day… I took a dump in the ice cold river in 5' of water today. I had taken my kayak way and deep to get away from all the other hunters and when you know it the duck hunters were surrounding me. So right after daybreak I decided to jump in the kayak and paddle further up the river when i was sitting and reaching For my paddle that was on shore and lost my balance as kayack rocket and i went in backwards head first . Had to strip down and squeeze as much water as I could out of my clothing (wool) And then paddle out one mile ad then portaged my kayak another 3/4 of a mile. Needless to stay a totally wasted rut day and my bones are still cold. Yes in going back out tomorrow.... This year just seems like the year of accidents for me after 30 something years I haven't had back-to-back accidents like this. Frustrated beyond belief.....
