Waders VS Neoprene Pants - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I wear waders every sesh, no matter what. Trunks under when its warm, thermals under when its cold.

The trick is, don't fall off your kayak into the dangerous shark infested waters of la jolla.

Somewhat related side-note: It seems that fishing from a proangler is much more risky than any choice of pants you can make. Never have I seen such an UNWORTHY ocean going vessel. You catch the smallest wave and flip the thing instantly. Sitting at the launch I've watched 5 for 5 yardsale landing in the PA, and in meager conditions.

1. it cant surf for shit
2. apparently it fills with water as soon as it flips.
3. you cant re-mount it once your in the drink
4. you cant lift it or move it unless you are a gorilla or have a team with you
5. if your drive breaks, it's too wide to paddle

So other than having an old man's chase-lounge seat, and being able to mount a $5000 sonar onto it (which you will destroy as soon as you flip, which is apparently inevitable) whats so "PRO" about it anyway?
