    I tried waist packs didn’t like having to turn them around and limited the depth I could wade. I went with a filson strap vest. Cool in the summer and very versatil. Soe comlain that there is no enough room but if you could live with a waist pack you could certainly deal with the vest. Plus I think it hasa cool reto look.

    A hunting guide in Canada said to me one rainy morning while we were suiting up. “Nice Goretex jacket” he said while he pulled out an old beat up Grunden Jacket. I asked why he wore such a heavy coat? He replied Goretex is nice but rubber is dry. I took his advice and bought a set of Grunden’s 10 years ago. Here in New England I wouldn’t have anything else.
