I went fishing again the other day, it poured rain and I didn’t get a bite, so there’s not much to write about. However, the air temperatures are starting to drop <\/b>as well as the water temperatures<\/b>, and I don’t plan on giving up fishing this fall, so I need a pair of waders<\/b>.
\nI am wondering if any of my readers have any recommendations or suggestions for me before I purchase my first pair of waders<\/b>. I know there are many different styles of waders that can be used for any number of activities, and as many different price tags.<\/p>\n

I will be using my waders for fishing in streams and small rivers<\/b>, every once in a while on a lake or pond. I do like to hike a bit while fishing, and as I won’t be bushwhacking for miles, my waders should be durable enough to withstand minor snags <\/b>on sticks and branches. I would like a relatively versatile pair, allowing me to wade in late fall and early spring without being too cold<\/i>, at the same time allowing me to hike a short distance without being too hot<\/i>. I don’t even know if there is a pair of waders out there that will meet those requirements!<\/p>\n

Right now I am considering a pair of neoprene waders by Cabela’s. The have received very good reviews, and seem to be pretty versatile. These waders come in Regular, Stout, and Tall, which helps me as I have pretty long legs. They also come in two different weights, 3mm lightweight or 5mm regular weight neoprene. The price is the real deal-maker for me (I think<\/i>) at $54.99. It looks like I’ll probably want a pair of wading boots with this pair.<\/p>\n

Does anybody have experience with these waders? Do you own a different pair of waders that you love?<\/p>\n

I am new to the wader game, and I was initially considering a pair of hip waders. However, I don’t want to be limited to standing in thigh-high water when I can get a pair of chest waders that will cover a wider range of situations.<\/p>\n

I am going to shop around a bit more, but any help will be greatly appreciated!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
