It's cheaper to get them mail-order from Canada.

Op --or so I've heard. My drug of choice was grown in Colombia, or I'd be
buyin' from Canada too.--

Peter,

I was in your local fly shop (Grindstone) looking at waders last Saturday
and I did see the Wardells but they are too heavy for what I want them for.
You know, I am an agnostic as far as country of origin goes these days. The
Horror! Bimmers assembled by good ol' boys in the deep south instead of
Turks in Germany! Canons/Nikons made in southeast asia! (is it Malaysia?).
No, the world outside is not as backward as some people think.

After comparing Canadian Wardells to Simms Freestones (same dollars),
I wouldn't touch the Simms with a barge pole (durability). However,
if you're after maximum portability the Wardells, being heavier, won't
pack down like the Freestones. I'd go back and have another look at
Clearwaters as I think Orvis has gone back to the original formula. I
put six hard seasons on my Clearwaters and their still my backups and
(Frank's G).

I've now put one and half seasons on my Wardells and I remain very
happy with them.

Ya, but they're way more comfortable if you don't tell 'em about it.

Been shopping at Wal-Mart lately?


Does Wal-Mart sell gasoline inhalers?

Hello,

Sometime before next April, I intend to buy a new pair of lightweight waders
as a backup spare for my "guide weight" gamer. Of the ones currently on the
market, my choice would be the Simms Freestone. I have looked at the
Freestone in a shop; they are not as lightweight and packable as say, the
Orvis Clearwater but the Clearwater fit is just terrible.

My question is this; does anyone know at this time if any new products are
coming for 2004 from Simms (or any other top quality manufacturer), which
will be a competitive alternative to the Simms Freestone? I would prefer an
even lighter wader if one were to become available.

Thanks for any information.

Yuji Sakuma



why the hell would you prefer an inferior product to save a few
bucks? do you like getting wet?

no new waders from simms in 2004.... why? well, it's probably
gonna take the competition 5 years to catch up.

You might look at one of the Bailey waders.

Hart, you were behaving almost like a civilized member
of polite society for a while. I think it might be time
to put a fresh layer of aluminum foil in the hat, as the
current one seems to be wearing out. In fact, you might
want to double up, as there is an election year coming up.

Ever helpful,

Kevin
