Hi All,
Well , I gave the Jacket and Waders a good Klobbering last saturday.
Whit a day !!!
At one point I had to come out of the river and shelter on the bank . Rain blasted by the wind provided a stern test all morning and early forenoon .
So was I dry ? Well , remarkably for me (note Peter !) the answer was yes.
In fact the Bearskin jacket was almost too warm as I also had my ORVIS fleece on as well. warm as toast I was. And no leaks in the jacket . Highly recommended.
Although I had forgotten my thermal bootees I did wear a pair of thermal trousers underneath .
My feet therefore got pretty cold at times in the river ,(my fault), but the waders again could not be faulted . Warm and dry as it says on the tin.
I,m away to get another pair. Mind you they are brand new so we'll see how they wear in time.
Paul.
