[Armando]

MY NEOPRENE WADERS ARE LEAKING THROUGH SOMEWHERE I AM ALL STICKY WITH ACUASEAL TRYNG TO CLOSE THE GAPS AND SPLASH IT HAPPENED AGAIN YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS FISHING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I AM GLUING THE GAPS 'CAUSE I CAN'T FIND ANY OTHER HOLE OR LEAKAGE. IS IT TIME TO BUY NEW WADERS??
WHAT ELSE DO YOU USE TO REPAIR THEM OR HOW ELSE DO I LOOK, THE SOAKED DARKER SPOT SYSTEM IS NOT FUNCTIONING.

Time to get new waders. Your spending too much time being wet, sticky, and repairing something that will not ressurect.

Rx: Soak the old waders with beef broth and chunk them to your dog.........they will taste better than anything else he would want to chew on, and a whole neoprene wader will take him a long time to finish, sparing any of your other gear, particularly the NEW waders, the cork handles of your favorite flyrod, the walnut stock of your shotgun, etc., etc. Treat yourself to that something you've been wanting, the breathables. Minimizing the headaches while fishing makes for a more pleasurable and memorable outing.....ya don't need to spoil a fishing trip because you took broken gear with you.

Go in a dark room w/ a flashlight and put the light inside the waders. You'll see a bright spot on the outside where the hole is. Usually it's along an inside seam w/ those waders. Patch with a dime sized wad of goop. Cabelas also guarantees there waders, I've sent back about 8 pairs and always got a new one in return.

That's brilliant!

Sounds like something right outa "Hints from Heloise" or good ol' Martha Stewart herself!

Fill with water from the hose.

Find Holes. Circle with Sharpie. Turn Inside out. Dry. Fix with goop etc.

Sharpie circles? Ewwwwww. Shut-up, this aint no fashion show.

Turn in-side-out....then fill with water..........no sharpie marks and no one will throw beer cans at you.

Yep you are right bones time to get new ones, yesterday went fishing again and got soaked again, I've been trying to do everything to save my waders I'll just have to let them go JEjeje.
Didn't know about the cabelas guarantee on them I'll tell them

Thanks

Water is on the outside. If you patch the inside of the hole, water will penetrate the neoprene and find a way in.

Frame the neoprene waders and put them on the wall. Then go buy a pair of Patagonia waders. When THOSE leak they give you a new pair...
