I want to ask all you people that stand up and fish all day. Does it get to hurting your backs and knees? Mine hurt when I stand on concrete all day. (but it could be cause i was a carpet installer for 30yrs) but anyway, I`ve seen post where people ask about putting a thin pad under their carpet. I figured that the pad would just soak up water till today. I found some pure rubber 3/16th pad that I had forgot about useing a few yrs ago. I think it would work good. It`s not hard but firm with cushion. I know i keep some rebond rug pad in front of my work bench and helps alot when I`m standing in place doing something. I hate to ask somebody top let me use their boat as a trail run , so i guess i`ll have to try it on mine frist, but I don`t stand long in my boat. So who`s up to try it out. If somebody is willing to try it out for me I`ll put in new carpet on their front deck for nothing,,,and if you don`t like it i`ll take it up and installit back like it was...what you all think?
