I agree about the broken leg BS, I have a pair of studded vibrum soles and I have no problem wading anyhwere I have been. "I" have known about the possible ban on felt since they first starting talking last year, however, alot of people around this area rely on the local paper for information regarding meetings, proposals, etc made by the DNR, and unless our outdoor page editor deems it important, it doesn't make the paper. I know people should take it upon themselves to get the information straight from the DNR but then again, if they do that, then they will have nothing to complain about.
