This podcast is all about about your waders — wader care and wader repair. You might think that if you take care of your waders, they’ll last forever, but that's surely not true.

My son Aiden asked to loan a pair of my old waders to a friend the other day for a fishing trip. And I said, "sure, but they all leak." Every pair of waders I’ve ever had has ended with leaks.

Waders are like anything else. Nothing lasts forever, but you can absolutely lengthen a wader's lifespan by taking care of them. Things like washing your waders, turning them inside out when it matters, and just being careful about what you’re walking through extends the life of waders significantly.

All of us in this conversation have been fishing long enough to have gone through many, many waders. We’ve also been in the game long enough to know how to patch waders. I’m constantly surprised by how many anglers tell me they got a pinhole in their waders, so they sent them back. That’s not how it used to be. Every die hard angler that I knew used to have a good supply of Aquaseal and they knew how to use it.

So here are our thoughts and experiences about taking care of your breathable waders and patching them effectively when the inevitable happens.

My friends Austin Dando, Bill Dell and Josh Darling join me for a good conversation about landing nets and carrying methods.
