L4F... if you're just using them for fishing, the breathable are the way to go... no condensation moisture build up and dress the way you need to stay warm... I normally wear a pair of wool socks, drawers and a pair of fleece pants under mine and stay warm in the coldest of conditions... it's doubtful I'll ever go back to neoprene's, I used to fish the Yellow Breeches all winter long, would break ice outta holes and come back in an hour to fish them... I'd get as wet inside as out from condensation... damn near froze to death getting out of my gear one day... came out of the stream got out of my waders first off and froze near solid till I got the rest of the gear put away... no more of them, now I can get out of the water strip the waders off and clothes are dry...
Jasper, I normally keep red and brown along when trouting... they work best after the fish have been in the stream a while to get used to eating real food...
