I almost drowned years ago wearing waders albeit with no dry top in the yak years ago, the wading belt is no waterproof seal IMO. My waders filled with water then the bootfoots dropped below my feet stretching the suspenders. The boats acted like a drift sock catching the estuary current i was in making things even more dicey. PFD saved my butt. I currently wear a farmer john wetsuit with drytop in spring and fall but have also shortened my early season until about this time of year some sort of light splash gear over a wetsuit also helps with the cooling in the wind aspect if you get wet. I would use a drysuit if they were were more affordable.
