They are too warm for summer, and do get a bit sweaty<br />at times but as for other uses they could be put too other than fishing I am at a loss.

I've tied it in mono, flouro and braid.<br />I think you did the right thing in declining Martin's offer of well-used chest waders!!!! I hate to think what's been going on in them.

I now only use braid with a knottlest knot. I even tie up combi links with braid and flurocarbon rather than trust a knottless in fluro direct. Everyone has to trust what they use/do to be able to apply the pressure necessary to land our prizes and change what we have too to keepmartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364518570374322950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9197778115917889421.post-76455152908263057582012-08-19T18:55:40.718+01:002012-08-19T18:55:40.718+01:00Some nice fish there by Martin.
