Okay, how 'bout this one. I wear Dan Baileys with the lifetime
warrantee. I've been told I'm tough on gear (blew out two sets of new
waders within 3 days of each other). Ended up with the Baileys and
haven't looked back. Comfortable, they wear well, and they've yet to
leak on me.
Yep, now *that's* an endorsement I trust. And endorsements like that
are one of the best reasons to hang around this place.
Well hell, and **** you very much. What is my endorsement? Chopped
liver? Harumph.
Geez, calm down Louie. I didn't say your endorsement of Simm's was any
less trustworthy than Frank's endorsement of Bailey's, just that I don't
trust the fly fishing rags.
There was a time however when you had Orvis everywhere and I would have
been somewhat skeptical of an Orvis endorsement. ;-)
