To tell the truth I had to quit wading au natural account the mermaids wouldn't leave me alone .
It may be heresy but take what's chewing . Channel cat , walleye and rock bass are chewing , smallies ain't .
Hijack over , back to the topic .
I'm glad I live on a flow where it is safe to wet wade . Tim is right about the heat in the rubber waders , even if you keep up the fluids on the water you still end up dehydrated unless you can pack a heck of a lot of water .
If I had to wear breathables during the summer I guess I would buy 3 pair of closeout deals and rotate them . Maybe they would last longer if they weren't being used 3 days a week or more .
How about wading boots , how long do yours last ?
