So last weekend I went for a spot of Grayling fishing. I will call it fishing but what I should really call it was a nice drive and then an opportunity to get a freezing cold left leg. Yup, the old waders are playing up once more and a leak has developed which gave me a good reason to pack up early and bolt back up the road.

Still, it was a nice day out
I know go to patch my waders !

One word,two syllables -wetlands.I purchased a pair of these in 2002,and these waders lasted four years-considerably longer than any other pair i have ever owned.They are noeprene INSIDE,and have a tough rubberised outside layer,but…..-cosmetic they are not.However,there is no catwalk on rivers-no need for vanity-just practicality.

P.S-i got them in a sale in cafaros for 50 quid.

Sounds good - do they not get pretty hot in the summer though ?

AYE, they’re murder! but thankfully they are not worn much in the summer,because of the normally very low flows in the river,the fish are EXTREMELY spooky,so wading would hammer my chance of a fish-but they do a very good turn in the cooler months.
