I understand the desire for collapsability, but I've found that a goodwill ski pole makes for a great wading staff and walking stick. It's great for scrambling in the mud and logs on the way to the steelhead river, or climbing the steep banks of the Deschutes access road. Plus, it's always available to pound on the ground to let the snakes know I'm coming. And, it's cheap.
