After decades of Orvis & Simms waders I was shopping for my first neoprene waders to go winter fly fishing ... and now I know to make sure they are camo & boot foot too.
bought a pair of Caddis neoprene waders this year and it was a game changer. They are super warm and comfortable. I got the stocking foot and I'm glad I did. I love my Korkers and I feel like the stakes are too high during Winter to go with whatever happens to be attached to a $100 pair of waders. Last thing I wanna do is go down due to slippery boots.
You might think they’re the equivalent to moonshine rods, but I’ve been really impressed with my Dryft waders. Wore out a pair of G3’s and wanted the zipper. I figured for $350 I’d take a chance. Had them for about two years now and they’re holding up way better than I thought they would. Doing my best to beat them up too....not super easy on my gear. LOL!!! Good vid by the way. I enjoy the heck out of them.
You're right on Patagonia's! I had both booties leaking in 6 months & took them 10 weeks to get them back to me. Went with Redington Zip waders last year & will never own anything but zips again!
could not agree more about the pants style waders, I have been using them for about the past 6 years and I love them, way easier to get on, so much cooler in the summer months, and easier to have a poop when nature calls. I buy mine at Bass Pro (their brand) and they cost 145 bucks Canadian. When they start leaking I wear them anyway because most of the time it is summer and I don't care if I get wet (sounds funny but more times then not I wear them to keep the mud, sticks, ticks and other river shit off my legs). I still have chest waders but asides from times when I know the water is high (usually spring when it is also cold) or salmon fishing in the fall they stay hanging in my tying room.
My first were Red Ball boot foot rubber waders. (I’m old) The new multi laminated breathable stocking foot waders are great. Simms and Orvis seem to be the way to go. Great vid. Thank you.
Kokatat! They make some amazing dry suits, I'm a white-water kayaker they are the best IMO. But they make some really good pants with Velcro on the waste, they are not advertised as fishing waders, but they have lifetime warranty, you can send them in to have them repaired, they will patch all those black berry bush pin holes and send them back to you. If you backpack/camp in they are must haves, super light, breathable. Check them out.
@Valley Adventures I've got 4 dry suits and purchased a set of their pants just for backpack camping/fishing alpine lakes, they have held up really nice, and are super light. The warranty is amazing too.
I got some Orvis Silver Sonics 6 years ago and they're going strong after probably ~50 trips/yr, not including a month of hard work in a marsh where I beat the crap out of them. Very good experience with Orvis
Love my neoprene chest waders but after 3 seasons of fishing the boots are leaking. So I got a pair of wading socks I wear inside them. Keeps my feet warm and dry in the sub freezing temps in western NY
I had a bunch of waders, no one can compete with the quality of patagonia..... Also had the orvis silver sonic guide, god waders, but.......nowhere near the patagonia. If a pair of waders last me one year....thats damn good in my world. Had the patagonia waders for 2,5 season now and still going strong. It boggels my mind on how waterproof they are, its unreal.
I remember my Dad having a pair of hip boots he wore them fishing, hunting and doing chores around the farm they were old school green rubber with yellow trim and yellow rubber souls and they never wore out I think he bought them at a "Western Auto" hardware store which are now out of business. I like hip boots myself for cold stream fishing but I wish I could find a pair like the ones my Dad had they were bullet proof but probably really hot and really heavy.
Im pretty frugal about fly fishing stuff, but actually spent a few bucks on nice waders end of season sale. Having grown up with red ball non breathable boot foot waders, I feel like a king in nice breathable waders.
I got a pair of LL Bean Kennebec Zippered waders before they were discontinued. I got them $100 at a LL Bean store about 3 years ago and I love them. Roomy for layers, super durable, and it makes me look like a "real" fly fisher person dude. I agree with having a zipper, it makes going pee super easy.
Zippered waders are the sh*t! Literally? Changed my game. Patagonias are top tier now btw, used the new release now over 150 days hiking around chollas and they're phenomenal.
I LOVED my Dan Baileys. They were a little bulky (I should have tried one size smaller maybe?), but lasted FOREVER. Hated stepping up to my SIMS, only because of the price, but they have the features closest to what I was used to (e.g. lined handwarmer pockets, good straps, etc.); so far no complaints in my second year and I fish all four seasons. Ben, would LOVE to see you evaluate "off brands" that seem to get high ratings but don't know anyone personally that's used a pair (e.g. Frog Toggs, etc.).
Great video. Sounds like you and I have had almost identical wader experiences. I also recently acquired the Orvis pro Z. Fished 12 times in them. So far, the best I've had. Stay huge.
Have had 3 pairs of G3 Simms and have loved them but now my last pair is coming to the end of its useful life and I like the idea of the zipper but there $200 more. Oh well thanks for the video and stay Hugh
Check out dryft. Got a pair two years ago with the zipper and they’re actually really nice. Sturdy too. I’m not easy on my gear and they’re holding up really good.
I fish 80 to 100 days a year all across the country. I have fished orvis and simms the longevity on either brand is similar. So for me its all about fit and comfort. Currently I'm wearing simms. Now as for the contest the merchandise is awesome however how about 50.00 in merchandise and 50.00 in fried chicken. Just a thought.
My G3's just won't die. they have probably close to 1000 hours of neglect under their belt from blackberry bushwhacking to learning how to Spey cast with a few 3/0 hook encounters.
Cheap waders have been getting better and better. Going on 3 years in my crappy $80 off brand waders, they're super tough. Uncomfortable as hell though.
I bought a pair of $60 hunting waders and have now been wearing them for about a year without any leaks yet! Don't be afraid to look outside the fishing market
I fish 85-100 days/year. Tried Simms. Hooks on the gravel guards tore out every time. I’m on my third pair of Redington Sonic Pros with the zipper. Love them at half-two thirds the price of Simms.
Can you do an "an about rods" video as well? Kinding talking about blank material, rod actions, weights, lengths, etc. and how each can be used for different species?
wondering this too. I'm drawn to them because of their repair / reuse model they generally follow with their gear, but I'm not sure how that will apply to their waders. do they repair them for ya like their other gear? if so how often... and side note those patagonia / danner boots make me drool...
@@JonathanSzkil They try to repair the waders and are not very successful but only if the waders are under 5 years old. That's how they handle it in Germany.
Great stuff. Definitely agree that you get what you pay for. I’ve had some of the best and worst waders of my life from orvis, and as you could imagine the cheaper pair only lasted me 20 days on the water.
I went with the patagonia expedition zip fronts. My logic was that patagonia had some issues and a bad reputation for waders for a while and when they came out with the expeditions it was clear they really wanted to change that reputation and get some credibility back in their wader game. You can tell they overbuilt the crap out of them as soon as you pick them up. I just wish they were made in the USA rather than vietnam, especially for the price. Conversely, Simms has been the defacto wader company for so long, that my logic there was that they have kind of rested on their laurels. From talking to a lot of people and reading a lot online, it definitely sounds like Simms waders aren't as durable as they once were. I get that peoples experiences with waders can vary wildly and it is all anecdotal... But if simms makes their waders nuclear then they cant sell you a new pair every other year so like I said... Logic lol. But hey I also have korkers, so now all I need is to get a moonshine rod, go catch a CUTTIE on it, and take a pic with a tail lift and I will complete my transformation into the anti huge fly fisherman. Oh, and after I throw the cuttie back, I'll use my leader straightener to straighten out my tippet. That is tied to a tippet ring.
Great video spot on. Full of great info on waders. I'm a Huge Fly waist wader dude. When it's warmer or at least mid 60s I'll hit the water in hiking shorts. BTW my waders were so inexpensive I don't even know the brand name but I'm getting my money's worth and then some.
First of all, zippered waders make no difference for women. Second, in my experience no well made waders really "die", you just have to use a lot of Aquaseal and know where the leaks are and not wade too deep. They will still keep you warm. Granted this is coming from someone who is too cheap to buy new waders, but buying and using 4 bottles of Aquaseal in a month is acceptable.
I think it’s problematic to recommend wading pants on account of “not usually going more than waist deep”, though. The fact is, if you DO go waist deep, or even close to waist deep, wading pants won’t cut it… you’ll take on water if you lean, if you step into even a shallow depression while moving, or if there’s any disturbances on the water. So while wading pants sit waist-high on the body, they’re really only good for water as deep as mid-thigh. For waist-deep water, chest waders are really needed.
They are the product, that does the things, that "long boots" don't - you don't get splashes in the crotch, and end up looking as if you peed you pants. And you can sit down in the grass, without getting a wet ass.
If the water is moving, you should not be going into it above your waste. Fast moving water at knee height is enough to make you swim. I'm a ww kayaker, with a life vest, dry suit and we teach to not stand up until you can crawl on all fours if you swim. Current is not something to underestimate.
@@kymerdeth never said you should go in above your waist. I said that if you’re going in waist deep, or even close to waist deep, a pair of wading pants that stop at your waist sure as heck aren’t gonna cut it. It’s like this: hip waders are only good for wading a bit over knee deep… pants waders are good for mid-thigh… chest waders are for wading waist deep. With each type you realistically need to give yourself a good 6” of extra insurance, so to speak, above the depth you intend to wade, otherwise splashes, walking, leaning, etc can lead to water occasionally over-topping your waders of choice.
Man, I really enjoy your videos sometimes I just have to laugh at myself. We all do the things you talk about at one point. Thanks for the information and the laughs. I have a warm and safe rest of the winter👍
Why you gotta throw shots at the rust belt and our fake steelhead? That’s not how I need to start my Monday off. Especially with the 3 feet of snow thats on the ground. My fragile ego is crushed….😫 But I got my “lake run bows” this weekend!
LOL! Our “fake” steelhead are no more “fake” than the brown trout found anywhere in North America. No more “fake” than the Golden Trout found anywhere outside of the Kern River basin, or the brook trout found anywhere west of the Mississippi. Plus, he doesn’t realize all that snow caked on the felts makes us look taller for the ladies!
What should we call the Great Lakes salmon since we can’t call a steelhead a steelhead in the Great Lakes anymore? From what I hear, steelhead fishing might just be better in the rust belt, True?
Cool water? I like Frogg Toggs; Reasonably priced and as long as you don't go wading through cactus or raspberry bushes they'll last three-ish seasons. Cold water I'm going for the 5mm. Check your local regs, many states have outlawed felt bottom boots.
As an idiot who thinks that marching around the Cascades in January is a fun and constructive use of time my G4 Zipper waders were worth every piece of my soul that I sacrificed to Simms. If you're not a guide and you have issues with them they will readily fix them for you as well, thumbs up.
you know what really gets me is all these channels. get a fan base here ! there start another channel . so you have to pay to watch. not really fair to the fans/subscribers that cant afford it
You were doing great until you recommended boot foot waders. Absolutely worthless unless you're sitting in a duck blind. In fly fishing you have to move!
When you do ruin a pair of waders, don't throw them out, cut the feet off and use them as bibs. Great for winter in the boat.
Great idea. Thanks
Yes

Dont forget its easy to fix pinholes in Simms (Goretex waders). your self.. its much harder in nylon waders... :)
I just got orvis pros for Christmas and Love them! But my ultralights gave out pretty fast too.
Surprised you aren't recommending the blue jean themed Dryft waders with a 15% discount code.
I also had the neoprenes for my first and wore them in July in Iowa, because that's what fly fishers did
I can smell them from here... but I'm also in Iowa hahah
Rubber sole boot foot waders are a lifesaver for mud too. So much easier to get your feet unstuck!

I'm in the market now. Thanks for the timely info. I can't go to Florida every weekend until is is warm so 5mm neoprene it is!
I looked at Orvis waders.....but I already had a mortgage on my home and didn't want a second. Stay huge!
Cheap waders have been getting better and better. Going on 3 years in my crappy $80 off brand waders, they're super tough. Uncomfortable as hell though.
Old tested models and materials have some good sides for sure.
Yeah, got my fiance a pair of the new Frogtog waders and they have been remarkably good for her.
I use froggtoggs and they get the job done for a 1/4 of the price. Orvis waders go up to at least $1200. I’ll pass.
I bought a pair of $60 hunting waders and have now been wearing them for about a year without any leaks yet! Don't be afraid to look outside the fishing market

If your chest waders don't have the male/female, you can buy them cheap in "leather works stores", and make a connecter.
Most informative of all wader videos yet. Well done.
Damn, I was hoping you were doing a giveaway for your old leaky waders.
Make an offer...
A lot of the leaks are repairable. Hell ask the whitewater guides they can get years and years out of there drysuits and still be dry.
Great stuff. Definitely agree that you get what you pay for. I’ve had some of the best and worst waders of my life from orvis, and as you could imagine the cheaper pair only lasted me 20 days on the water.

What ‘s your favorite way to fix leaks… before buying the zipper waders?
Uv wader repair has worked well for me. From small tears to pinholes. I put duct tape on the inside of the tear for strength.
Aquaseal. Will be looking for a couple pinholes today actually.
