Leaking boots!

Bailed out Colmer Island box yesterday and it didn’t take but a minute to realize my chest waders have holes in both legs….just about knee high, maybe a little higher.  Spent the rest of the day with wet legs all the way to the toes.  I went on line today trying to find the best way to fix them and unless there are actual holes in them, there is no best way to fix them.  Holes can be patched, thin material is another story.  I guess that is what I’m face with….thin material.

I’ll try and keep you posted with my fix and the best results.  My first attempt will be an inside coating of Shoe Goo.  The bigger problem is in order to test them I have to go out in the field and get them wet.  Will it mean another wet hunt?  Only time will tell.
