Having a good pair of chest waders out in the swamps can make the difference between a great trip and a miserable trip. Anyone who has pulled on a pair of bad waders knows that miserable feeling you get when you feel water trickling in, or the nasty chill of cold water in a fast-moving river. When you are looking for a pair of chest waders you are going to want to match the wader to the most common activity.

You have essentially two choices in wader style... Stockingfoot and Boot Foot. A stocking foot chest wader is like a pair of kids pajamas. They are completely waterproof, but the feet are like stockings. You need to purchase a pair of separate boots to protect the stocking feet. Boot foot chest waders are just like they sound, a pair of waders with a built-in boot. The main problem with boot foot waders is that they can be a bit heavier and more clumsy when working through water with a muck bottom. The other issue we have noticed with boot foot waders is that they tend to begin leaking where the top of the boot meets the leg of the wader.

When looking for wading boots to go over a pair of stocking-foot waders, order one size larger than your shoe size. When considering the soles on the boots, consider that cleated soles are durable general purpose soles. They are good on wet banks, mud and snow, but not so safe on rocks underwater. Felt soles are excellent on bare rocks and concrete and under water, but very slippery on wet grass, snow, and slimy surfaces. Felt plus a cleated heel can be a pretty good compromise.

As far as we are concerned, there are only two materials to consider when buying a set of chest waders. Breathable Membranes and Neoprene. Breathable have advanced nicely since they were introduced a few years ago. They are well suited for warm weather fishing, and great if you plan to do a ton of walking in them. They can be very expensive, but prices have been coming down.

Neoprene is by far the best material for cold conditions. We use neoprene for all of our waterfowl hunting and early spring fishing. Neoprene chest waders can be susceptible to punctures, so you need to be very careful in them. Repair kits are available for neoprene waders and you would be wise to keep a kit on-hand when out in the field.

Waders: their Breeding, Haunts and Watchers


Waders: their Breeding, Haunts and Watchers


$65


All of the Nethersole-Thompson family contribute in some measure to this book but it is Dr Desmond Nethersole-Thompson's life-long interest in waders which gives the work its exceptional quality and authority. For well over fifty years the study of waders and their behaviour has been his passion, and his great knowledge and experience are internationally recognised. There is a bonus, too, for the reader in the particular freshness and style of his writing which conveys not only his closely observed, patient study but also the joy and satisfaction he has known in watching such intriguing and beautiful birds, mainly in their Scottish habitats. The core of the book is the comprehensive accounts of the biology and behaviour of 18 species of waders in their breeding haunts (see Contents list). In addition there are chapters on waders generally, wader spacing and dispersion, the wader watchers of past and recent times, and two final chapters on new or returning waders and those pipe-dream species that, not too fancifully, may yet breed one day in these islands.Voice is one of the headings within the species accounts but there is also an appendix of sonagrams of wader songs and calls; there are tables of data and an extensive, selected bibliography. Donald Watson has provided more than a hundred drawings to complement and embellish the text and there are 32 photographs. Jacket paintings by Donald Watson

Death, Taxes, and Leaky Waders


Death, Taxes, and Leaky Waders


$12.99


Death, Taxes, and Leaky Waders collects forty of John Gierach's finest essays on fishing from six of his books. Like all his writing, these essays are seasoned by a keen sense of observation and a deep knowledge and love of fishing lore, leavened by a wonderfully wry sense of humor. Gierach often begins with an observation that soon leads to something below the surface, which he finds and successfully lands. As Gierach says, writing is a lot like fishing. This is the first anthology of John Gierach's work, a collection that is sure to delight both diehard fans and new readers alike. To enter Gierach's world is to experience the daily wonder, challenge, and occasional absurdity of the fishing life -- from such rituals as the preparation of camp coffee (for best results, serve in a tin cup) to the random, revelatory surprises, such as the flashing beauty of a grayling leaping out of the water. Gierach offers nuggets of practical wisdom on choosing fly patterns and travel companions ("Do not go fishing with someone who is so set on being back at a certain time that he will refuse to invent a case of car trouble to keep you on the water an extra day"), vocabulary ("Expertizing means acting like an expert. Not necessarily being an expert, mind you, but acting like one"), and how to fish metaphorically ("Fly-fishing for trout is poetic; for bass it's somewhat existential; for panfish it's corny, but fun"). In rivers from Colorado to Scotland, whether alone or accompanied by his fishing buddy A.K. ("I enjoy fishing too much to risk my life at it. Death can really cut into your fishing time"), Gierach vividly captures both the subtle rhythms of the angling life and the natural world on which it depends. In "The Purist," John Gierach says of fly-fishing that it "led you inexorably to one paradox after another. The idea was to catch fish, but the best writers made it evident that it was perfectly okay not to as long as you failed to catch them with the proper grace and style." Whether he's catching fish or musing on the ones that got away, Gierach is always entertaining and enlightening, writing with his own inimitable blend of grace and style, passion and wit.
