Hunting chest waders Seriously Stuck.

[MudMate]

Just thought I'd share this here with you guys.

I ventured out in the Mud with my Duck hunting waders.

I thought I would just test the depths, get in and get out, Boy was I wrong! Guess I took one for the team.

The Top layer of Mud wasn't that thick, but underneath was a layer of Super Sticky and deep Clay that took my Boot feet Captive.

Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing that.

It reminds me of my old sinking spot... in the summer, the grass and reeds are chest high, forming a great shield from any possible eyes. The muck is about that consistency, but I was able to submerge in it with some struggle. My spot was shoulder deep standing straight up with a solid gravel/sand bottom.., a big plus for one who can't swim.
Once I loosened the muck up enough, I can float in it by pulling my legs up, then by wiggling can sink as deep as I liked without using my arms, getting a more "natural" sink. Spent many hours wallowing there.

Great area and You're doing pretty much the same than me.
I would suggest to add long gloves (elbow length or longer) to your outfit. Then your hands would stay warm and dry too and you can much better use them to help yourself out or to work yourself deeper down.
