Jacket Simms Waders
Dressing for rainbow trout fishing in winter
When I started fishing for rainbow trout in winter a few years ago had nothing. Until then, I was a "good weather" fisherman who did not know what was really cold. Girls looking for quickly.
Never forget my first trip. Me were connected only with an old friend of mine who I had not seen since elementary school. Steve told me all about fishing for salmon and steelhead. It was mid-December 16 1999, I think. We met at Steve's house at 5:00. All I was wearing my jeans, shirt, hat, shoes and a normal warm jacket in the car.
Steve saw me. "Are you crazy? Said." You'll freeze. "Well, I said this is all I have. "Do not worry, I will." Vamos "They have no soon reached the river that was just that, freezing. Anyway, I'm happy because I'm going to take too long for Steelhead. I remember him when he was almost insensitive to the base and said that it was hot as could be. It was not long to ask "Ok, how much of all this and where I can get." I would not go through this kind of day again. By the grace of God, which caught my first Steelhead that day, but not without paying a high price.
In my opinion next trip there, I spent my team with a pair of boots with a waterproof barrier. The only thing missing is hat. "I knew I forgot something." It was a cold day. It was uncomfortable, but not least my first time intolerable. He had a cap, which was finally authorized.
I tell my friends, nothing better than convenience of being hot. When temperatures in the 30s with rain, snow and sleet. (Yes, I had 3!). You'll be glad you train. Moreover, being we're offering a lot more fun.
Here's my suggested list after leaving the river a day.
1. Waders. You can find these in all parties. Like anything else, you get what you pay for. I recommend the breathable Simms G4 or G3 is the high-end brand. Are a little high in the price range of around $ 350 to $ 699. You can get the Rivertek Stockingfoots for $ 299. Rivertek is the lowest they would go for the winter. You can also go to support long and 3.5 mm of neoprene. You can get a couple of these in the range of $ 80 to $ 200.
Two. Water resistant. Another must have. Really waterproof because of their own comfort. Personally, I have to feel free and quick. Therefore, I am using more strict, style lighter in Colombia. The end result is dry.
3. His hat. I like the Henschel. A quality oil-skin hat to keep your head dry. At the head is a head warm and dry. I think these run in the $ 50 stadium
4. Underwear. There are all sorts of things out there right now. I use everything that is designed to keep moisture and heat more inches I usually wear any wool over my waders. It all depends on how hot or cold it is. Some people like to need 3-4 layers, while others only 1 or 2. Check your local REI store or sport for them.
A final tip, get a dry bag. You will not regret having an extra set of clothes for emergency reasons. You never know when you slip on a rock plain or wet due to bad weather. Just put your dry bag in the truck or ship. Dry bags can be purchased through sporting goods store also. The Price depends on size, the average cost of $ 40.
