Waders are one of the most important parts of any fishermans gear and can make your fishing experience a pleasant one or one you will want to forget. Depending on the depth of the water you will be wading in and where you plan on fishing will determine the type of wader you should choose. Waders come in two basic styles, hip waders and chest waders and in three material types nylon,neorene and breathable
Anglers that
will be wading in only a foot or
two of water may prefer hip waders which are a good choice when fishing
in very
shallow water such as small streams. Chest waders would be a
good choice for wading in slightly deeper waters and where you need
additional
coverage when fishing in moderately aggressive streams
Chest
waders are the most versatile because they
provide the fly fisherman with the most coverage. This is a perfect
choice when
wading in chest deep aggressive waters. It’s great to have this kind of
coverage even when you’re not planning on wading in very deep waters
because
some waters that we wade in could have unexpected drop offs or holes.
Chest fly
fishing waders are perfect when fly fishing using a float tube and also
gives
you the best protection in fowl weather conditions like on a windy or
rainy
day.
Types
of
Waders
Bootfoot fly fishing waders have the boot built right into the wader.
From a
cost standpoint this is an advantage since you don’t have to buy a pair
of
wading boots. Bootfoot waders typically can come with either rubber or
felt
soles. Rubber soles are good when wading in muddy conditions and felt
soles are
ideal when wading around or on slippery rocks. Some people claim
because they
can’t get a good fitting boot with bootfoot waders that they prefer
going with
a stockingfoot wader.
Stockingfoot waders have a couple of advantages. One is that you choose
your
own style wading boots. Being able to choose your own wading boots
might give
you better fit, support and comfort
Material
Waders
can
be
made
from
several different types
of materials, breathable material, neoprene, nylon and rubber.
Breathable fly
fishing waders are the most comfortable and versatile. They are perfect
for all
kinds of weather. They are typically light weight and will keep
exterior
moisture out but allow your perspiration vapor to pass though.
Neoprene will keep you warm in cold water and cold weather conditions.
In warm
weather conditions they can become uncomfortably warm
Nylon waders are inexpensive for the angler that is on a tight budget.
Some of
these waders are lightweight and some are heavy duty. They are durable
but can
become uncomfortably hot. They are non breathable so perspiration will
stay
inside the wader.
