    Looking at these two a little concerned the Mid Length might be a touch to long to wade with.  Has anyone waded with the mid length?  Thoughts on one or the other?

    Thanks,

    I wade with the Mid Length and absolutely love it. The extra length makes a huge difference in the time it takes to net large fish. Where you attach it will determine if it’s too long or not.  I use a magnetic quick release to attach it to the top loop of a small backpack, basically just below the back of my neck. That works great for most situations. If you plan to attach it any lower on your body, then it will probably be too long.

    Thanks, that is how I plan to attach as well

    I had the same concern as well but the mid length is awesome, especially for those larger fish.  I wear a backpack and just shove the handle down between the straps behind my neck.
