what do you know about the “Caddis line up? ive never heard of the company or even seen this pair so im looking for ideas
Yes, I’ve seen CaddisDry waders around — this is a brand that has made its way into big-box sporting goods stores like Garts and Sports Authority, which have mostly skis and bikes and treadmills, and then a smallish selection of fishing gear. I’ve never owned a set, so I can’t speak authoritatively about ‘em, but II’ve never heard any one say to avoid them or that they suck.
My gut tells me they are one or two notches above the Hodgman POS waders you get at Wall*Marks and a half a notch or so below the big-box house brands like Cabelas. I don’t mean this to be derogatory toward the company — I’m actually trying to be complimentary. They look pretty nice.
Looking at the description of the link you included, I’d say these waders have at least a couple things going for them. First, they’ve got the double fabric around the knees. Most breathable waders do nowadays, but at this price point you can’t take anything for granted. They also have gravel guards, which are kinda like gaiters that come down over your boot tops to keep big pieces of gravel from getting into your boots. Not only are these nice to have, but it also signals a little more thought has been put into the unit — you don’t see those on super cheapo waders.
On the other hand, there may be some drawbacks — first is, I guess you’re thinking of buying these online? It’d be best if you could try a pair on. Going through the mail might mean sending a pair back until you get the right size, which, of course, is a hassle. The main drawback here is that it is at a perilously low price point and the overall quality is an unknown. I have to be honest, they look pretty nice, but then again they always look nice in the picture, eh? Maybe someone else here on Y!A has a pair (of these waders, heh heh)?
