  Hopefully al your gift requests were fulfilled during the holidays, but if you are still looking to update your safety gear, here's a list of items to consider. The following ae excellent gifts for fishermen at any time of year. Let's start at the bottom. Have you looked at your boots recently? Is there plenty of tread to insure secure footing? Not only for the long days on the water but for climbing from boat to boat while mooring, while checking the status of your boat in the harbor during the next wild nor'easter, and for shipping the ice from the wheelhouse and rigging. If not don't wait. Head to your marine supply store or local outfitter and pick up a new pair. Staying on your feet is a good way to stay out of the water and to prevent injuries associated with falls. [Description provided by NIOSH]
