[patrick mccormick]

gets some hodgmens, cheap and decent. Get cabelas wading boots, there $50 and work fine

[Cameron Mortenson]

I second Patrick’s choice for waders.

[Rick Marcum]

Check out Dan Bailey waders and boots.

I sure like the price on the barebones. I think its gonna be between those and hodgman widelites or classics. and I’ll just find some cheap wading boots that will work for now.

Get the Hodgman wadelite waders.

I had a pair of Cabelas waders for my first pair and they lasted very well.

I just found a good deal on http://www.williamjoseph.net/ Dry-Namic Waders due to a non-standard sizing closeout sale (small and xxl). They usually sell for about 280 and I found them for 170. I read multiple positive reviews online. Has anybody used or owned a product from this company?

[Rick Neilson]

Go to bass pro, cabelas, sportsman’s warehouse, etc. and go for a nice pair of bootfoot gortex waders.

I know that CHOTA doesn’t get much respect on most boards but mine have treated me well.

Thanks for joining us.

I will go in a different direction than some of the others have gone.

Purchase waders through LLBean.

[Rich Kovars]

Bean pulled the West Branch waders this year after a quality issue with last years run.

Jay, IMHO that is a fantastic deal on the William Joseph waders (depending on your weight/body size).  I love WJ clothing and gear and they make great products, I have posted other reviews on WJ here also.  The key is that XXL size – I would call them today and tell them your size; if they think that would be a good fit, grab them quickly. However, make sure they will not be too big and that WJ will accept a return if so.  Also, ask if they would be willing to accept less money for an instant sale over the phone.
