Use my waterfowl waders?? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I was told that if your waders fill with water you will sink so I would test it out and try to see if you can swim in them.

See Jim Sammons video on waders....
as for Fowl waders, with attached BOOTs...or booties? and what kind of kayak,
I don't think you would like peddling in boots, but paddling maybe..

I've worn my waterfowl waders for lobster hooping. I was nice and toasty since they are a 5mm neoprene with 2000g thinsulate boots.

When I bought a hobie I switched to a stocking foot to make the pedals easier. If your paddling the boot foot will be fine. It just looks funny in Mossy Oak Duck Blind camo on the ocean.
