Submerged halfway up the legs (4-4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

knee-deep

(Other definitions for knee-deep that I've seen before include "Heavily involved - up to leg joints?" , "Thoroughly involved (in)" , "Deeply involved (in something)" , "Halfway up one's leg" , "(Of water) over the top of one's wellies?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
