content: Waders are just something else to carry along on a fishing trip and (for me anyway) too hot to wear in the summer unless they are actually needed - think leech infested water. I usually just wear a pair of old cut-offs and try to keep my crotch dry, standing knee to thigh deep in the water is a good way to keep cool.  Or is getting soggy just a foregone conclusion?  We're shore fishermen and we get wet dammit :-)
