Bamboozle, Whats nettle? I'm wondering beause a few years back the bro in-law and I were fishing the Susquhanna right were the Penns enters it, In fact we crossed the Penns entering... We got into what his doctor told him, Was some kind of bacterial infection..He got the worst of it... Well My sister did atually through...ummm... Association shall we say.... Upon getting home I thought the itching was from poison, So I tossed a cup of clorox in the bath water!. Nipped it in the bud with almost no discomfort! I still wade in shorts in cooler waters. Buy if I'm hitting water that resembles bath water temps..some sort of lightweight pants tucked into the socks/boots is a good idea!
Wish ya great fishing,Bill
