Although I don't spend all day on the river, I found that my current outfit serves me well for late fall steelheading while spending most mornings in the river. It consists of Goretex stockingfoot waders over fleece pants over thermal dry-plus long underwear w/ goretex socks over silk socks inside good quality gudewear lug sole wading boots. Upper is a goretex hooded wading jacket over same underthings with the addition of a light sweater and wool fishing gloves. I used to wear rubber, but found it too awkward, uncomfortable and cold, so after years of suffering I decided to spend the $ to get better gear and I am glad I did. I found that I can enjoy wading for longer periods while being quite comfortable during late season no matter what the weather brings. Kind of nice to be wading in the river during early season snow The outfit was purchased thru Cabelas, for prior to joining FAOL I could not find what I wanted here in Ontario.
