And it looks like they're wading out in the water in normal pants and not waders.

'Pretty sure the gun on the left is a Winchester '97 - can't make-out the profile of the other one.

Neat photo - thanks for sharing.

Amen.....I'm gettin tired of these young poo face punks ruining the public land hunting. They have no respect for the sport, other people or themselves for that matter. If my dad were still alive, he'd still be beating their asses for what they are doing.

Sorry for the rant.

That is a very cool pic.
