Waders that don't leak.

[JohnR]

I usually get a season + out of a pair of Hodgmans believe it or not, and need to do light repairs after.

I got some White River Fly Shop from Bass Pro as I needed some quick and they sprout leaks faster than senators at the congress bar.

Might go the Bean route this year.

#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& advised Simms, and he was right. Money well spent in my experience. Leaks are a fact of life with waders. As long as the seams are good (Simms seem to be), all you can ask is for something that is easy to fix yourself. Simms fit the bill (for a lot of bills). Get the g3 or g4's....they are the best protected.

expensive (similar to simms) but i like patagonia waders.

i got a pair on sale a few years ago and just bought a new pair at full price i was so happy with them.
