Default Again......another wader post!

I need to throw some things to the wife so I can get to open some presents w/ the kids on X-mas.

I have been wearing stocking foot neoprene waders with tie up boots for years and love them. But my pair is torn up so I will be getting a pair of waders for Christmas. Just not sure what to go with since I want to do some wade fishing this winter/spring.

Do you guys on the lake like neoprene for wade fishing or do they make it difficult to walk for long periods of time? I love my neoprenes, but sitting in a duck blind isn't the same as walking a oyster reef!

I tried wade fishing in neoprenes last year and thought the experience was terrible - walking through the mud and muck with limited range of motion. IMO the breathables are definitely the way to go!

put me in the minority that likes wading in neoprenes. But I don't wade until it gets cold anyway. I have a pair from Cabelas made for fishing. Don't use em in the duck blind! Got a diff pair for duck hunting.

Have both now and prefer breathables to neo for fishing 10:1. Range of motion is soooo much better with breathables, you don't feel like you are draging Sulphite or Pookie around all day. Try the Mag 2 from Academy and I don't think you'll be unhappy. I would splurge and buy a pair of Simms wading boots though. Academy only has the cheap canvas boots and you they look like clown shoes. Gotta be pimpin at the landing.
