#13273, "I'm dyin' out here!!!"


          

Guys,
Just went and bought me a Buck's Bags "Buckaroo" round boat (well, I got it sunday 16 Feb). And I have got to say that I'm dyin' to get it on the water. But damn it's cold down here in the "sunny" south (yeah right, about the sunny part), water temps are around 42-45 degrees avg. I'm off this thursday and I'm gonna go try and find a good pair of neoprene waders so I can get out on the water. I've got cabin fever something terrible.

Till later, Marvin

Marvin,

If you can I would recommend a breathable wader that is about a size too big. Would make for a better all year wader and all you have to do is to layer underneath when fishing cold water. I've used mine steelheading and did not have a problem when I put a pair of thermals and sweats along with two pairs of socks. This was when I was deep wading well past my waist.

My two cents!

Todd

Samurei,
Took your advice and invested in a pair of breathable waders. Got'em pretty cheap also ($95.00). Gonna try and get out on the water this weekend if the weather cooperates.

Marvin you can also sit a bit higher out of the water if you take along a PFD.

Just a thought :)

Have fun be safe where ever you decide on venturing.
