Default Weird thing to wear

Just wondering if you had come across any examples of people wearing weird clothes or carrying strange gear when fishing?

Not fishing, but I was once up on Striding Edge with the cloud down, and out the mist appeared a couple. She was wearing a blouse and skirt, with heeled court shoes and carrying a handbag. Full warpaint. They were lost. A couple behind me offered to guide them off, but I wish I had found out what they thought they were doing.

I was fishing on Stocks just recently when a boat angler and a female companion got into a boat and roared off. Nothing unusual about that you may say. No, but this female companion was well endowed up top and displaying a large proportion of them.

Recently I caught two poachers of Irish decent on our chalksream. I asked them to leave and there was a bit of a verbal exchange as you'd expect however their dress was somewhat amusing to me.

Shirt, tie, quilted jacket and black shoes. Hardly fishing attire.

Possibly, but at 2800 feet of stony ascent ? Adds a whole new dimension to the phrase "knee trembler".
