@@Adventuristic89 tough to give a rule of thumb. In the salt they tend to last shorter but in the freshwater I fish mine for at least three seasons

@@wave640 from the top of my head I would say 6 normal bottles of wine standing up 🙌

@@Vweebs you probably could but I’m not sure how long it’s gonna stay in there 😎

Thanks for the review and answer (^｡^)

Comes as a 25L, 35L and 45L version 👏

The bag in your video is 45l?

From my experience it can be submersed and stays dry. However, please be aware that yeti advertises this bag as waterproof but not submersible. If you want 100% security on submersibility, go for the Patagonia Guidewater or the fishpond thunderhead

Hi Brett, that’s the Patagonia micro puff jacket 🙌

@@thewadinglist thanks mate. appreciate ye

I think it should fit, the bag is quite big 🙌

Hi Thommy, they are indeed very similar. The sideshields on the Clifden are a little bigger and the Oakley come with a metal leash. Apart from that very similar. It comes down to what lens you prefer. Hope that helps.

Hi Steven, I wear a size S (im 5'10") and the color is Storm Cloud

@@thewadinglist thanks for the fast respond. Filson does not sell the color storm cloud. is it "raven"?

@@stevenw3419 Hi Steven, sorry, my mistake. I mixed up the brands. The color is Dark Denim Navy. It has been discontinued but you can still find it online

More than adequate? This is a crazy good performance per dollar deal. This rod casts as well as many rods multiple times its price. Yep, no warranty, but the rod is crazy inexpensive.

These are the Brown Tortoise Gloss frames and Silver Mirror Lenses 🤝

And they are an excellent choice as an Allrounder

@@thewadinglistI went with matte black and grey lens. I would’ve gone with blue lens but I really don’t fish. I do go to the beach though. Love what I bought with 10% off

Hi Mike, as a rule of thumb you always have to size +1 compared to your street shoe size. I found these to run big but would still recommend sticking with that rule. So if you’re an 11 in street shoes, go for a 12 in wading boots. Hope that helps 🙌

Hi Mike, from my experience you need to size up one size from your normal shoe size. I’ve worn them with the Simms G3 waders with neoprene booties and the Patagonia swiftcurrent with neoprene booties. The simms booties feel a bit tighter in them but the leather softens when you walk in them for a bit. The same goes for repeated use and after they dried off. They seem tight when you haven’t used them for a while but then again they „grow“ once you use them again. They are a solid, slightly heavy boot but that’s makes them virtually indestructible on the other hand. Hope that helps 🙌

Hi there, you laid it out pretty well :). If you want to keep you sling/backpack on while casting I thing the sling is the better option also because you can simply swing it around and access your gear without having to take it off your back. In terms of capacity the backpack is the better choice but considering you're looking for something for a day trip, I think the sling will be big enough. Hope that helps

No issues on my end so far. But I’ve read about people experiencing this as you’re saying.

@@thewadinglist great! I'm curious to see the 1 year review

It’s made of a very durable nylon which is a form of plastic

The Patagonia is maybe a fraction less bulky but I’m not sure it’s worth the investment if you’re happy with the thunderhead apart from the size. Most waterproof (and submersible) hip bags are a little bulky from my experience (the Simms and Filson dry for example). This one here is a little smaller: www.overboard.eu/collections/waterproof-waist-packs/products/pro-light-waterproof-waist-pack-2-litres. Hope that helps 🙌🎣

@@thewadinglist Thanks for the info!

Hi, these are the Hamilton in VINTAGE FRAME - RANGER (POLARIZED) LENS

Thanks so much!@@thewadinglist

Hi, these are the Black Ink w/Prizm Shallow H2O Polarized 😎

Thanks! 😃

That's correct - it's the 4 star line. Great overall filet knife in my eyes.
