Simms has breathable wading pants and I believe there are others as well. I bought the Simms but they are spendy at $229 on Amazon. There are others that are less such as Frogtoggs. They are stocking foot also.

Well done. Perfect outfit.
Many, many, many Red Band Rainbow Trout here in Oregon. No better nymph than the Gold Ribbed Hares Ear. Whoever tied that one did a good job.

True but only part of their life. They start and end in fresh water.
