Chest waders are by far the most popular fishing waders because
chest waders are the most versatile in terms of where you fish,
for instance, to get to a very shallow stream you sometimes have
to walk through head high wet undergrowth, but in chest waders
you remain completely dry.
Whether you are fishing a match on a lake or sitting on your
basket your chest waders will keep you dry when it rains. When
you are making up ground bait they keep your clothes clean, and
all you have to do to clean them is walk into the lake. Chest
waders are vital for many branches of angling, putting you in
touch with fish that were perversely inaccessible.
A key area for chest waders is sea fishing. Sea fishing involves
very messy bait, which as well as being smelly can fly off the
hook when casting so it pays to cover up as much as possible
when you are preparing bait or gutting your catch and even filleting
is a smelly process, chest waders protect you from all this smelly
slop, you then just walk into the sea for a couple of minutes
and all the smell and gunk washes away and your waders are as
good as new.
As well as keeping you clean chest waders keep you dry and
safe in the water.
Quick release buckles are an important safety feature just in
case you fall in. By pressing the buckles you release the shoulder
straps, which enables you to safely leave the water. As well
as the quick release buckles chest waders have a drawstring to
pull tight around the chest, this stops what is called "the
bucket effect". If you fall in off a boat with the drawstring
open, on entering the water the top of the chest waders would
open like a giant wind sock taking you quickly away with the
tide, so if you sustained an injury that
prevented you operating the quick release buckles the results
could be fatal if you had not tightened the drawstring. Chest
waders are made to fit properly ensuring a comfortable fit, which
allows room for bending, stretching and walking without splitting
or leaking. If wading out a long way, only a good pair of chest
waders can take the water pressure repeatedly without leaking
and in our opinion we use the best materials available to make
the best chest waders available.
