Wader Hole
« on: October 29, 2009, 02:26:25 AM »

Anybody know what kind of patch to use? Is located under sole of my  Neoprene  Probably cause of those small rock that went in the boot step on it while fishing. Thanks!   :D

Aquaseal for sure. They should carry it at most fishing stores. Ihad a pair of waders with several leak, just applied a small amount over the hole and around leakings seams... Good as new. It does take overnight to dry And will work much better if you leave it in a heated area

--cannot remember the trade name but Loon Outdoors makes a UV activated product that can be put on wader when it is damp for instant repair in the field.

Seconded on the gravel guards. Nothing is more annoying than stopping and untying your boots to shake the pebbles out every 15 minutes when your buddy with gravel guards is busy hooking one after the other.  ;D

mix a couple of drops of water in with the Aquaseal for a quicker dry time.

Also, store the unused tube in the freezer (in a baggie) and drop it in a glass of warm water before using again...freezing it will make the cap come off easier so you don't tear the tube trying to uncap.
