    Always take Gatorade or water with you when fishing. You must stay hydrate folks.

    Glad everything is OK now spawn. That coulda gotten ugly. Like ship says...always stay hydrated when out in this heat.

    wow man!! you better be careful, always drink plenty fluids, i only drink water (until i get home) and i was at the res today also and i went through 4-16oz bottles and we quit by 1:00 or so. My only issue today was that i had a lady hit my trailer in the parking lot and knocked out a tail light and scuffed my trailer a bit. Bless her heart , she stayed waiting for us to return, so she could appoligize and pay for the damages. How many people do you know would do this? just when you think their is no hope for humanity someone proves you wrong.

    Good reminder & you should pack way more water than you think you'll need. In real hot weather I'll carry a small towel and dip in the cooler, wring it out and wrap it around my neck. It sure can help on those real hot days.

    Sneaky stuff dehydration. Sounds like you had some good luck and came through it in good order. I've spent a bunch of time working in MS and I never felt HOT like you all have there. Oh it gets hot up here,but not like Mississippi. Take care in the future to keep your outside dry and your insides wet.
