Tides54 Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 I got a float tube for christmas and I'm low on cash. I need a cheap set of waders. If anyone can link me a pair I would be thankful. I do have boots so I don't need them to include the boots. Quote

Onvacation Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 Couldn't agree more. Cheap waders are like flying in a plane that is in "pretty good shape", or dating a woman who is "almost divorced." 2 Quote
ohiobassfishing Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 I would take a look at Froggy Toggs. But as others have said you get what you pay for. If you want to spend a bit more money try orvis and if you want the best go with Simms. Here's a pair of frogg Toggs for a decent price, I used this pair for a season steelhead fishing before they sprung a leak. But with a float tube they won't take the abuse like they do while steelheading. https://www.waderusa.com/frogg-toggs-hellbender-stockingfoot-chest-waders.html?fee=1&fep=86&gclid=CJGF8onqkNECFVeewAodZxEBOw Quote
Super User Further North Posted December 27, 2016 Super User Posted December 27, 2016 The key to really good, relatively inexpensive waders is to not go with current "models". Look for last year's versions, etc. Allen makes some great waders (mine are on their 4th season, and I wade a lot, both here in WI and out west). Don't get sucked into the idea that you have to pay hundreds of dollars for wadres that are comfortable and last. I have never paid more than $150 for a set of waders. I buy stocking foot waders, then go with wading boots, so take that into the calculation. One thing you do not want is cheap wading boots...but again, you can get very, very good pricing on last year's versions.
